For most home buyers, the purchase of real estate is one of the largest financial transactions they will make. Buyers purchase a home not only for the desire to own a home of their own, but also because of changes in jobs, family situations, and the need for a smaller or larger living area. This annual survey was conducted by the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® of recent home buyers.

This report examines:

• Characteristics of Home Buyers
• Characteristics of Homes Purchased
• The Home Search Process
• Home Buying and Real Estate Professionals
• Financing the Home Purchase
• Home Sellers and Their Selling Experience
• Home Selling and Real Estate Professionals
• For Sale by Owner (FSBO) Sellers

For many buyers, the first step in finding their new home begins with looking at properties online. Find out more insights in the 2021 Profile of Buyers and Sellers report.

Some Members of Congress are considering budget reconciliation legislation that could limit private-sector investment in real estate construction by raising taxes. Now is not the time to be taxing investments that can help put a dent in our country’s housing shortage and even create good-paying jobs.

Right now, the average American household simply cannot afford to own a home due to a chronic shortage of around 6 million housing units. This also impacts renters across the country.

We must no longer turn a blind eye on our country’s housing shortage. Sign the petition calling on Congress to focus on affordable housing.

Now is not the time to tax private-sector investments in real estate. The Administration’s announced efforts to provide more affordable housing at this critical time offer a ray of hope for millions who earnestly desire to find the pathway to homeownership or who are simply desperate for adequate places to live at a price they can afford. It would be a tragedy if the efforts to move the nation in a positive direction toward affordable housing production were unwittingly negated by tax offsets that end up harming the ability to do just that.
