Earn $70,000, get housing welfare

[harleygirl]

This is crazy........if I could not afford to live somewhere, I would move. What a waste of tax dollars!!

FORT LAUDERDALE -- People making moderate incomes -- up to $69,720 a year -- might soon join the ranks of the city's poor in being eligible for housing welfare.

Why don't they just put a freakin' cap on real estate? It's astronomical everywhere.

Blame greedy real estate brokers. They "set" the market.

As I remember, this all started when buyers started bidding wars. Homes were going for more than asking price. Waaaay more.

You cant make me believe someone making that kind of money cant afford a house in Florida! You can buy mansions down there for what we pay up here!

How long has it been since you were in FL...and what part of FL were you looking at real estate in?

I think the brokers do largely set the market.

Most home owners don't have a clue what their place is worth. They decide to sell and ask the realtor, "What do you think we can get?" Simple as that.
