Congressman Henry Johnson and Nathan Deal are sponsoring the Home Improvements Revitalize the Economy Act 2009 to provide tax credits to stimulate the purchase of kitchen cabinets and other remodeling and home furnishing improvements, according to an announcement.
Under this legislation, individual consumers and joint filers would receive $2,000 and $4,000 tax credits for purchasing items that meet recognized environmental standards (LEED, NAHB, Green Globes, SFI/FSC and ESP). Retailers, contractors and building product resellers can receive up to $10,000 for covered purchases. The incentives cease after three years.
A coalition including 14 associations representing kitchen cabinets (Kitchen Cabinet Manufacturers Assn.), home furnishings, flooring, paint and coatings, carpet and rug and other interests are supporting the legislation.
