“Now that the Republicans have provided the skeleton and offered a broad outline for tax reform, the important part of negotiation begins in order to flesh out the vast details,” said Daniel D. Mennenoh ITP, NTP, president of ALTA. “In its negotiations, Congress should focus on the potential for tax reform to incentivize faster growth and investment. That goal will not happen unless tax policy continues to promote investment in real estate, which accounts for more than 15 percent of the nation’s gross domestic product. Representing an industry that protects property rights and provides peace of mind, our members understand the important role housing plays in our economy and how Americans can grow wealth by owning a home.”
