California AB1714 offers a tax credit for first-time homebuyers to cover required repairs.

California AB1714 introduces a tax credit for first-time homebuyers to offset required repair expenses. This credit applies to expenses incurred during the sale of real property, provided the repairs are necessary for closing the sale under a first-time homebuyer assistance program. The credit is limited to $25,000 per taxable year and can be carried over for up to five years if unused. The credit aims to reduce failed transactions and expand access to homeownership by addressing unavoidable repair costs that disproportionately affect older housing stock and first-time buyers.
