Yes, for instances of public housing/affordable housing foreclosure, or based on a means test in order to protect low-income households in the case of an extreme change of circumstance.
@9ZMDQPD6 days6D
Yes. Only if the homeowners provide proof of documents and show a good valid reason for falling into arrears. And with a plan to get out of arrears.
@9ZKSZGF1wk1W
The Government should offer homeowners facing foreclosure two options: assistance subject to a repayment plan or an alternative social house
@9ZJWFDD1wk1W
depends. if it's a homeowner's only property and they are of moderate or below moderate means, then yes. any other scenario, nope.
@9ZJ6XYR1wk1W
I think perhaps there should be a program to apply for government assistance upon imminent foreclosure under particular circumstances
@9ZH4RY42wks2W
Yes Provided they have paid the relevant income tax and the foreclosure is due to unforeseen or difficult circumstances
@9ZB8DJ3 2wks2W
Yes for families who will become homeless, however there are many developers/ property owners who had significant write offs and are now back buying property again and availed of honest tax payers money to bail them out
@9Z9J5652wks2W
Yes, but depending on the reasons behind the foreclosure and the nature of the property in question.
