California Association of Realtors Opposes Point-of-Sale Mandate AB2678

The Point-of-Sale Mandate excerpt (concern related to energy efficiency audit / investments for homes at purchasing time):

"C.A.R. is OPPOSING AB 2678 (Núñez) which among other things, requires that ALL homes and commercial property in California have an energy audit at point-of-sale and that mandatory energy efficiency investments be made. While C.A.R. appreciates the goal of AB 2678 C.A.R. strongly opposes the point-of-sale requirements in AB 2678 because they fail to achieve the bill’s objectives and, such mandates will further weaken the housing market. If enacted, AB 2678 could add thousands of dollars to the cost of purchasing a home, including up to $400 just to have a home audited."


I received a postcard as well as an email alert on the subject matter and here is the link to get more information. Please feel free to use the Poll in this blog to cast your vote.
