NAHB Seeks Member Input on Modernizing the Mortgage Interest Deduction
With the 2017 tax cuts expiring at the end of 2025, one of NAHB’s key initiatives in the coming months will be fighting for our tax priorities as Congress addresses the upcoming tax cliff.
NAHB will host five online listening sessions with the membership to discuss next year’s federal tax debate. The listening sessions will provide an overview of NAHB’s 2025 tax strategy, with a focus on incentivizing homeownership.
We will seek input on modernizing the mortgage interest deduction by converting it into a tax credit, which could have a broad effect on the housing industry.
Members are welcome to attend the session specific for their region, which will include regional details, or the session that best suits their schedule. View NAHB’s regional leadership map to confirm your region.
Please use the appropriate registration form to secure your spot. (Member login is required.) Registration will close on Oct. 27 at 5 p.m. ET.
