H.Con.Res. 14, Establishing the congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2025 and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2026 through 2034, provisions impacting tax policy Revenue-Raising Provisions NMHC opposes imposing the net investment income tax (NIIT) on active income while also potentially increasing the NIIT rate. NMHC opposes requiring 100-percent recapture of depreciation deductions as ordinary income for real estate. NMHC opposes restricting the deductibility of state and local taxes (e.g., income, property, and industry-related taxes) by pass-through entities and REITs. NMHC supports retaining current law with regard to like-kind exchanges. NMHC believes that carried interest should be treated as a long-term capital gain if the underlying asset is held for at least one year. Low-Income Housing Tax Credit and Middle-Income Housing Tax Credit Workforce Housing Tax Credit: NMHC supports the establishment of a Workforce Housing Tax Credit to spur production of multifamily housing for households earning up to 100 percent of area median income.

Opportunity Zones NMHC supports: (1) Enabling States to recertify and/or redesignate Opportunity Zones to account for current economic realities and changes since Zones were originally designated; (2) Establishing new deferral deadlines so that taxpayers are incentivized to receive both a longer deferral period and the potential for a 10 percent or 15 percent basis increase with respect to reinvested capital gains; and (3) Reducing the basis increase necessary to qualify a multifamily rehabilitation project for Opportunity Zone purposes. H.R. 5761 (118th Congress), Opportunity Zones Transparency, Extension, and Improvement Act, to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to modify the rules relating to qualified opportunity zones, and for other purposes, all provisions Tax Depreciation NMHC believes Congress should consider proposals to shorten the depreciation recovery period of multifamily structures while opposing measures to increase the 25 percent depreciation recapture rate applicable to sales.
