State of Idaho Archives: on Welfare & Poverty


Brad Little: First-Time Home Buyer Account: tax break for young families

We must make sure state government is reducing all unnecessary barriers to prosperity. One barrier is the daunting financial reality facing first-time homebuyers, particularly young people just starting their careers and families. One specific proposal I will champion to help more Idahoans achieve the American Dream is the First-Time Home Buyer Savings Account. This account will encourage young families to set aside part of their pre-tax income to make a down payment on their first home.
