Delivering the housing dream!
Dear Editor:
It is the dream of almost every human being being to have a place to call their home. People work their whole lives in order to achieve this dream. Parents beam with pride when they know they can pass down that legacy and sense of security to their offspring.
However, the housing market is out of the reach of many. Million dollar properties make it almost impossible for someone to take out a mortgage and service this over the long haul. The dream to own a house for many is just that, a dream.
It is with great satisfaction that I read that over 6,800 houses were given out by HDC in 2015 thus far. This is a great benefit to all our citizens who aspire to have equity in order to grow their wealth. Some may not fully appreciate the pecuniary benefits of house ownership, but this housing drive being undertaken by the government is a very effective form of income and wealth distribution. This is an excellent initiative being undertaken throughout the country.
