Tax Credit Extension for Buyers and Sellers

Sharron — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 14:47:06 +0000

A Senate committee reached a compromise yesterday to extend the $8,000 tax
credit for first-time home buyers, a boost the housing industry expects will
help it pull out of its two-year-old downturn.

Lawmakers in Washington also added a $6,500 tax credit for other
primary-home purchasers and raised the qualifying income limits to $125,000
for single taxpayers and $225,000 for joint taxpayers, housing-industry
sources said.

Under the Senate panel compromise, buyers must have sales agreements in hand
by April 30, but they will have until June 30 to go to settlement, the
sources said. The measure still faces votes in the full Senate and the
House.

Tax Credit for First Time Buyers Almost Over!

Tax Credit for New Home Buyers

Don’t let the U.S. Government Keep Your $8,000
Earlier this year, the government offered an unprecedented $8,000 to prospective home buyers just like you to help them get into a home.
And on November 30th, they’re taking it off the table.

It’s up to $8,000 that you can use for a downpayment or closing costs on your next home purchase:
No Repayments if you live there for 36 months
No Interest, because it’s not a loan
No Strings Attached, you can even get the money up front
They couldn’t have made it any easier for you to get the money. The only problem is that in less than 80 days it goes away forever.
What’s worse is that if you don’t act soon, you could lose out all together.
