Call Now!  Preserve the Mortgage Interest Deduction!

Congress, as part of negotiations on avoiding the "Fiscal Cliff," has made direct references to "closing loopholes" and "limiting deductions" as a way to raise revenues. Clearly, the mortgage interest deduction is high on this list of revenue raisers.

Congress may decide to reduce or limit the MID at any time which is why it is vital that you call your member of Congress TODAY and ask that they preserve the mortgage interest deduction.

C.A.R. knows that you may have already taken action and asked your Member of Congress to protect the mortgage interest deduction. This issue is so critical that we are asking you to step up once again. C.A.R. is asking that you help us TODAY by CALLING your member of Congress directly and urging them to preserve the mortgage interest deduction.

Call your member of Congress between 6 a.m. and 3 p.m. PST to let them know that limiting the MID impacts ALL homeowners, not just those who take the deduction, by decreasing the value of all housing. Every REALTOR® needs to respond and make the call TODAY. Please note this number is for REALTORS® ONLY.
