I said that I don't feel sorry about those who were speculating. Ppl who are buying their first place, that's another story.

But then again, with all the gov't incentives, I find it hard to believe that people who are genuinely buying their first home wouldn't be able to close.

If one really is buying first place and couldn't close despite all the gov't programs, I think that person was stretching way too far and the only way I could think of to pull the trigger would be they were speculating as well.
