We want people to have jobs because they can buy houses when they are employed. No tax credit will help unemployed people buy a house. Using that money to fund manufacturing jobs helps ALL of us in the longer term. You know Kathleen I am not a Realtor, just a regular real estate agent so I'm not invited to NAR conventions.

I feel the same way. Are you planning on coming to NAR in San Diego. I'm hoping to forge some access to the powers that be, perhaps via Todd Carpenter, to express my dissatisfaction at the narrowly interested lobbying NAR does. As a real estate broker, I want the housing market (heck the whole economy) to be healthy over the long term. Thank you, Melina. I feel the same way. Are you planning on coming to NAR in San Diego.
