Impact Analysis

Life & Work

Self-employed individuals and small business owners who do not yet own a home could use these accounts to save for their first home with pre-tax dollars. Since many small business owners have variable income and may delay homeownership, this provides a dedicated savings vehicle with tax advantages that could help them reach homeownership sooner.
