Let’s take our Christmas Money and Add it to the $7,500. US Government Tax Credit…and Buy a Home!

Posted by Lynnwood Undressed

Yes it’s possible!  You’re eligible if:

  • You are a first time home buyer
  • You haven’t owned a home in the last 3 years
  • Your family income is less than $150,000.
  • You are single with an income less than $75,000.

 

How does it work?

It’s a tax credit applied to your income tax return.  It acts as a no-interest loan that you pay back $500. per year for 7 years.  If you sell before paying it back the balance is taken from your proceeds.  If there isn’t enough money in the proceeds then the remaining balance is forgiven.

 

This offer expires June 30th 2009.   Which mean your house needs to close by June 30th 2009. 

 

Interest rates are low.  Housing prices have dropped.  And now a $7,500. tax credit from the US Government.   This is a great time to stop paying someone else’s mortgage and buy a home of your own.  What have you got to lose?
