Short Time Left To Use Tax Credit & It’s Not Just For First Time Home Buyers
With just under two seeks left to use the tax credit there are a few points about the credit to remember. The home buyer tax credit originated as a f
irst time home buyer tax credit but it is no longer just for first time home buyers. If you have lived in your home for 5 of the past 7 years and are looking to buy a new home the tax credit can help make your purchase more affordable.
Another important point is that if you are a current home owner who qualifies for the tax credit you don’t have to be moving up. Your new home does not need to be a bigger, more expensive home, you can make a lateral move or a move down to a smaller home. The new home must also be your primary residence.
If you want to use the home buyer tax credit toward purchasing a new home in 2010 you need to have the home under contract by April 30. The home needs to close before June 30, but the contract date is nearing. The tax credit offers home buyers a great opportunity to save some money, so contact me today and let’s get out there and start looking at real estate.
