Subject:
Let the first-time home buyers tax credit expire

To:
Rep. Jackie Speier

September 29, 2009

 I would prefer to see more stimulus going toward the remodeling sector. Encouraging homeowners who are able to afford remodeling projects to move ahead would impact a larger segment of the residential construction market because remodeling has been stalled for over a year now. There is pent-up demand, and America needs greener homes.

We have a foreclosure crisis still ongoing and a surplus of houses on the market due to foreclosures. Enough with stimulating building new ones.
