The American Society of Home Inspectors® (ASHI) opposes strategies that would diminish the value of the homeownership incentives provided by the home mortgage interest rate deduction (HMID), that are currently allowed under the U.S. tax code.
Homebuyers who benefit from the HMID are a large segment of the total consumer marketplace. A recent evaluation prepared by the congressional Joint Committee of Taxation for consideration by the U.S. Senate Committee on Finance found that approximately 36.5 million tax returns filed in 2009 took advantage of the itemized deduction for home mortgage interest, claiming deductions for $420.8 billion of home mortgage interest. This amount is likely to be substantially reduced over the next five years as the result of an unprecedented wave of foreclosures and short sales. It will also adversely affect the millions of homeowners who have recently refinanced to take advantage of low interest rates. The HMID is a motivation to buy and helps to support the real estate market. Removal would adversely affect decisions to buy and put the housing market into a stagnant position.
Home sales and refinancing have multiple economic effects. Homeowners make significant expenditures when purchasing or improving a home. They buy appliances, furniture, home equipment as well as pay thousands of small businesses for home improvements and related transaction expenses. ASHI encourages President Obama as well as the policymakers on Capitol Hill to fully support the current tax treatment of the HMID and to fully consider the unintended consequences that will occur from a focused tax action on homeowners.
