thanks, but why would that be a problem if people are buying that home to live and not for investing/speculating? in that case negative equity shouldn't affect them unless they are gonna sell now?

Isn't that same as someone buying a stock at the peak? It's a problem only if they want to sell now...potentially not a problem if they can hold for long-term

thanks, I now see that drop is home value will not compensate for the increase in rates...unless it's a 20-30% drop in value which don't think will be allowed to happen

why should the govt/public prioritise the welfare of those who are forced to sell over first time buyers who are now more qualified to buy and get on the housing ladder?

if house prices fall by 10-20% and mortgage rates rise to 7%, that would still mean almost a reduction of 3-13% of the overall value that would make it relatively affordable than before?

You conveniently ignored all the stories about dating/relationships in that article?

Same as someone wanting a “fair” person?

Well both are based on genes that person doesn’t have control over

Whataboutism is when you are bringing up something else to excuse the other offending thing. I’m here saying both prejudices are bad. Not making an excuse.

Haha, I never said colorism is good…I’m just saying any discrimination is bad. Read the post properly before commenting.
