TAX CREDIT FOR FIRST TIME HOME BUYERS AND REPEAT HOME BUYERS
The President signed an extension for the first time home buyer tax credit. First time home buyers that are eligible can still receive an $8,000 tax credit which has been extended through April 30, 2010. Newly added for current homeowners...As long as you have lived in your current home and it was used as your principal residence for 5 consecutive years out of the last 8 years, you are eligible for up to a $6,500 tax credit through April 30. For both tax credits, buyers must have a binding contract by April 30, and you must close by June 30. Income limits apply to these credits and you should check with your accountant to see if you qualify. So take advantage of these tax credits while they are still being offered! Prices are stabilizing and interest rates are still low. If you were on the fence about selling and want to downsize (or upsize), call me and I will give you a compliementary home price evaluation.

TRUTH IN LENDING LAWS REVISED: The Government has set new requirements for obtaining a mortgage, effective July 30, 2009. In summary, Lenders must give good faith estimates of mortgage loan costs within 3 business days after you apply for a loan. Lenders may not collect fees before the disclosure is provided, except to obtain a credit report, and closings may not take place until 7 days after you receive the disclosure. How does this affect you? It protects you and will add a few days to the closing process. Click here to read the entire Regulation Z from the Federal Register.
