SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘First-time Homebuyer
Affordability Act of 1995’’.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND POLICY.
(a) FINDINGS.—The Congress finds that—
(1) it is desirable to make funds available from
individual retirement plans to encourage first time
home ownership, and

drawal of funds from individual retirement plans are
substantial impediments to making such funds avail-
able for that purpose.
(b) POLICY.—It is the policy of the Congress to re-
move impediments to home investment by first-time home-
buyers by permitting owners of individual retirement plans
to direct the trustees of such plans to invest plan funds
as home equity or debt in the homes of such owners or
in the home of family members who are first-time home-
buyers.

MAKE EQUITY INVESTMENTS IN PRINCIPAL
