Lawmakers in the House and Senate passed tax reform legislation today, paving the way for the bill to go to President Donald Trump for his signature. The President has said he intends to sign the bill by Christmas.
NAR worked with members of the House-Senate conference committee to help educate them on how to improve the final bill. After the vote, President Elizabeth Mendenhall issued the following statement:
"The results are mixed. We saved the exclusion for capital gains on the sale of a home and protected the mortgage interest deduction for second homes. Many agents and brokers who earn income from personal services will also see some significant new benefits in their business.
Despite these successes, we still have some hard work ahead of us. Significant legislative initiatives often require fixes to address unintended consequences, and this bill is no exception. The new tax regime will fundamentally alter the benefits of homeownership by nullifying incentives for individuals and families while keeping those incentives in place for large institutional investors.
That should concern any middle-class family looking to claim their piece of the American Dream."
Although the final tax reform bill is far from perfect, it is significantly better for homeowners than previous versions. That’s thanks to the efforts you made. REALTORS® generated over 300,000 emails and telephone calls to members of Congress over two Calls for Action and held countless in-person meetings with legislators, all of which helped shape the final product.
Last-minute changes to the bill include the following improvements:
Next steps
Enactment of the bill does not end NAR’s effort to reduce the negative impact on homeowners. “REALTORS®’ work on tax issues will continue," says Mendenhall, "and we look forward to joining members of Congress from both sides of the rotunda on that endeavor.”
While the basics of preparing a house for market remain the same – fresh paint, updated lighting and flooring, etc. – home décor trends change on a regular basis. There are some interesting shifts predicted on the horizon for 2018. Some might surprise you. They surprised us for sure! Here are a few that really stood out: OUT:
