$8,000 Tax Credit Extended to April 30, 2010! NOW Is the Time to Make Your Move.
The 2009 First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit, which was set to expire November 30, 2009, has been extended. The tax credit has been expanded with new changes that will further benefit qualified home buyers (anyone who has not purchased a home within the last three years):
• The new expiration date is April 30, 2010, giving home buyers over 5 more months find their home, get loan approval, and close the transaction. This is particularly important with the time it can take to complete a short sale transaction!
• In addition, income limits have been raised from $75,000 to $125,000 for single buyers, and for married couples the income limit has been raised from $125,000 to $225,000.
With historically low mortgage rates and still low (but potentially rising) prices, this is a good time to make your move. Many buyers who did not take advantage of the market conditions months ago are wishing they had acted. Don't miss out. If you are a seller and need to make a move, now is an ideal time for you!
