C.A.R. continues to fight a proposal to create a mortgage tax to pay for highways. Many of you have asked how to encourage your clients to get involved and help oppose this mortgage tax. There are a few easy ways to help spread the word.
1. Share this new website for consumers – www.nomortgagetax.org with your clients, friends and family. Use it in your regular marketing, share it on Facebook and on LinkedIn. If you have an e-newsletter, blog or website, you can use the content on the website for a quick update for your readers and followers. PLEASE URGE THEM TO CONTACT CONGRESS USING THE “TAKE ACTION” PAGE ON THE SITE.
2. Share the link on Twitter. For those of you using Twitter, please share the link in a Tweet and ask your followers to help spread the word. Be sure to include #nomortgagetax in your tweet.
3. Like and follow us on social networking. You can “like” the effort on Facebook and follow us on Twitter: @NoMortgTax.
At www.nomortgagetax.org, people can learn more about the issue, calculate their own mortgage tax and send their own message to their congressional representative. And this site isn’t just for people who live in California. It’s for anyone across the country who may be impacted by the tax.
By sharing this information with your clients, you not only help fight the tax but provide your clients with valuable information they may not see otherwise.
