It’s not a projection. You’re a smug fuck in most threads including your initial post above.
Holier than thou is stating my opinion on property taxes funding school districts is unequal? That’s you projecting, guy.

My sister was a special ed teacher for many years in crappy districts in South Carolina and Alabama and she would echo this sentiment. School was often the most stable thing in her students lives and she always said Friday afternoons were the worst because the kids would act out in anticipation of a weekend where they didn't always know where their parents might be or even where their next full meal was coming from. And that isn't an indictment of their parents either, most were well meaning but often single parents working multiple jobs without extra time or resources for their kids. I would agree that figuring out how to help these kids and their families the other 17 hours of the day is where the solution lies.
Agreed with with your post including the above, but thats the thing. in the cycle of poverty/addiction/abuse the parents are usually well meaning, its rare for a parent to knowingly harm their kid. But ditching the kids on the weekend to get high is protecting them from the addiction, bringing home different men (no matter how shitty) is a way to help support the family and give the kids father figures, being abusive is just discipline and manners, conflict resolution through violence is teaching them to stand up for themselves, having the oldest kid make dinner and care for siblings instead of doing schoolwork is prioritizing family as the most important thing etc, etc. Its a whole host of good intentions, but the way they get there is shitty and it was learned from the previous generation.
But providing this outside govt funded daycare sure sounds an awful lot like cultural whitewashing and authoritarian overreach to many folks. So that combined with the added tax burden on people whose kids are not directly benefitted means its a no-go.
So for now, the smart play is to buy the shittiest house in the nicest area you can... or that general strategy.
Boy this thread went to shit...
Talk about depressing.
To get it back on track...
If i have a homeloan at a nice low interest rate, but want to move and buy another house, is there a way to essentially transfer over that same home loan so i can keep the low interest rate? If this was possible i bet we would see a lot more movement in the RE market as a lot of people locked in big loans at low rates and are afraid of moving and losing that small mortgage payment.
“Can I have my cake and eat it too?”
If your current lender allows porting you can keep your current interest rate on your current home’s term and balance but you pay current interest rates on the difference on your new home.
Yeah, not going to be possible. Closest in concept would be a fixed rate HELOC on the current property, but you would have needed to set that up during the lower interest rate environment.
Contrary to what the useless middlemen above are telling you, here’s some links if you don’t believe me

Technically, both sides are correct.
Where does the OP live?

Why are you so angry. Smoke some weed, chill.
I’ve looked into porting; nobody in the US is gonna do it. What possible incentive would they have? My mortgage guy said he gets asked a lot, but is not a thing here.
Ah. Well, then.
The horse is so dead it's glue.
The rate is the rate. Nobody giving you a new loan cares about your rate on your old loan.
