    And they were heard joking (by an associate) about raising the price of their homes by the amount of the government grant wink.png. I remember having a ding-dong barny with a hay carter/transporter when he tried to charge me double the transport cost because he knew I was receiving a government subsidy for transporting hay (the millennium drought 2002 to 2010). My point being that bad actors will often take advantage of said subsidies/grants, and to add insult to injury, it distorts the free market in RE terms and is counterintuitive. A vote buyer at best.
