🏡 REALTORS® don’t just help people buy and sell homes — we advocate for homeowners and future homeowners at the State Capitol, too.

Thanks to REALTOR® advocacy efforts, Iowa’s new Property Tax Reform bill includes the creation of the FirstHome Iowa Program — a new state-run savings initiative designed to help first-time homebuyers achieve the dream of homeownership.

The program allows Iowa residents to open tax-advantaged savings accounts specifically for homebuying expenses like down payments and closing costs on a primary residence in Iowa. Participants may contribute up to $5,500 per beneficiary each year (indexed for inflation), and both contributions and account earnings are deductible from Iowa state income taxes when used for qualified homebuying expenses.

This is a big win for Iowa homebuyers and another example of how REALTORS® work behind the scenes every day to advocate for policies that strengthen homeownership opportunities across our state. Watch this video for a breakdown!
