Bill overview
This bill, the Make American Housing Affordable (MAHA) Act of 2026, proposes a new tax credit designed to make homeownership more accessible. It establishes a credit of up to $5,000 (or $10,000 for joint returns) for eligible individuals who purchase a principal residence, provided they haven't received the credit in the previous four years. The credit amount is phased out based on the taxpayer's income, with higher incomes seeing a reduced benefit. The bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to implement these provisions.
