Imposes a new excise tax on certain taxpayers who fail to sell excess single-family residences and stops some tax benefits for owners covered by the new rule. Specifically, the law adds a new chapter to the Internal Revenue Code creating an excise tax aimed at owners who keep excess single-family homes instead of selling them, and it disallows mortgage interest deductions on acquisition loans and depreciation deductions for single-family homes owned by taxpayers who are liable under the referenced chapter. Both changes apply to taxable years beginning after the date of enactment.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Finance.
