You are sitting pretty if you are an illegal immigrant in CA looking to buy a home. I would love to see someone on here dispute this and call it fake news.

It's a bill not a law, settle down. LOL. The committee was probably full of latino's

Rarebird,

With the California legislature, it's really hard to tell the difference.

In practice, though, I don't think any illegal immigrant will be able to take advantage of this:

California’s first-time home buyer application to relaunch with new changes (KTLA.com)

There were too many applicants, most of whom could already afford homes. The money ran out in just 11 days early this year.

The program then relaunched in April under a lottery system, but even then, only about 2,000 applicants will get the grants. Again, most of those applicants probably could already afford homes.

The only thing the new bill does is broaden the definition of "first-time home buyer" to include illegal immigrants:

California bill that could open new path to homeownership for undocumented immigrants advances (KTLA.com)

Given the outrageous price of real estate here in California, I wonder exactly which "undocumented immigrants" will be able to take advantage of this. Probably not the poor starving migrants who walked thousands of miles, snuck across the border, and are busy "murdering and raping" everyone.

Instead, the ones that will qualify will be the "rich undocumented immigrants."
