The California Association of REALTORS® is OPPOSING SB 1220 (DeSaulnier), which imposes a transfer tax to generate funds for affordable housing.

C.A.R. is opposing SB 1220 because it will add to the cost of buying a home at a time when the housing market is struggling to recover. While C.A.R. is an aggressive advocate for affordable housing, the association believes it sets bad precedent to fund affordable housing by making housing less affordable.

Stay tuned for more information and a potential Red Alert!
