Professional Real Estate Services and Consultation for Buyers and Sellers

The $8000.00 first-time home buyer tax credit bill was extended and expanded by President Obama to help encourage households to enter the housing market while interest rates are low and affordability is high. The credit does not have to be repaid and has been expanded to include people that currently own homes, and the credit is fully reimbursable, so households can get their credit returned to them in the form of a payment unless less you owe the government taxes. Then the amount owed would be deducted from the tax credit amount. This makes NOW an incredible time to buy a home! Here is a summary of the credit that may help answer questions for you. Also, recommend seeking the advice of a certified accountant for more specific details.

 -Expiration date for credit is April 30, 2010 and MUST close by June 30, 2010.

 -First-time buyers still eligible for same credit ($8,000 for married couples, $4,000 for those

  filing separately).

 -Current homeowners, who have consecutively maintained the home they want to sell as their  

  primary residence for five of the last eight years, are also eligible. However, the maximum amount

  for those homeowners is lower ($6,500 for married couples, $3,200 for separate filers)
 -The tax credit may not used to purchase a home for more than $800,000
 -The income limits for both tax credits have been raised to

  $125,000 for single buyers and $225,000 for married couples
