We continue our series about how your HBA and its affiliate, NAHB, have logged significant victories
advocating for members in the legal, legislative and regulatory arenas
during 2012.
Our
advocacy efforts have saved the typical home builder about $7,250 per
housing start in 2012, including both single-family and multifamily.
Our advocacy on form 1099 reporting requirements saved each member $230 per year. Another example of savings comes in tax policy. Expanded 1099 reporting requirements in the tax code would have required companies to file a 1099 form for every corporate purchase over $600 in 2012. NAHB strongly objected to the reporting requirement, and it was removed. This saved members roughly $230 – and countless administrative headaches – per year.
The Home Builders Association of Greenville are your neighbors and community leaders providing education and support for building industry professionals. We create jobs, encourage homeownership, and promote responsible growth throughout the upstate of South Carolina.
