California Democrats Advance Bill to Allow Illegal Aliens to Buy Homes with Zero Down Payment and 0% Interest
Meanwhile in the Democrat hellhole of California…
Illegal aliens will get interest-free home mortgage loans under a new California bill.
Democrat assemblymember Joaquin Arambula (Fresno) recently introduced Assembly Bill 1840 to extend a first-time homebuyer loan program to illegal aliens.
If the bill becomes law, illegal aliens will be eligible for a new program that offers a loan worth 20% of the purchase price of the residential property. There are no monthly payments and no interest accrues on the loan. Rather, the loan is paid back when the borrower refinances or sells the property. The borrower will have to pay back the original loan plus a 20% increase in the value of the property.
“It’s that ambiguity for undocumented individuals, despite the fact that they’ve qualified under existing criteria, such as having a qualified mortgage,” California Democrat Joaquin Arambula said in an interview. “Underscores the pressing need for us to introduce legislation.”
The legislation passed a key senate committee this week so California is one step closer to giving illegal aliens interest free home loans with zero down payment.
Fox News reported:
A key California Senate committee advanced a bill this week that would allow migrants and illegal immigrants to use a program aimed at helping widen the swath of the population who can become a homebuyer.
The “Dream For All” shared-appreciation loan program is billed by the state as a down-payment assistance program for first-time homebuyers.
When the qualified homeowner later sells or transfers the home, the homebuyer repays the original loan’s down payment, as well as a share of the residence’s value appreciation, according to the California Housing Finance Agency (CALHFA).
In a 5-2 party-line vote, the Senate Appropriations Committee approved the bill prohibiting an applicant for “Dream For All” from being disqualified based on their immigration status.
While foreign-born individuals are able to purchase homes in the U.S. by using an individual tax identification number in the absence of a Social Security number, the bill is unique in that it helps offer the benefits of homeownership to everyone, its author said.
