If you haven't owned a home in the last three years you are considered a first time home buyer. The $8,000 tax credit that the goverment is offering will only be available until November 30th of this year. Buyers need to get in there and buy now. Interest rates are at historical lows, prices are great and a tax credit to boot!

Income thresholds, $75,000 for individuals and $150,000 for joint filers. After those limits the credit begins to phase out. If you bought a home this year and expect your income to be lower than next year's, it makes sense to file for the credit this year using a 2008 amended return.

Go for it!!

 

It's easiest to become a millionaire in Angola, where $10.54 converts to 1 million units of Kwanze currency. Please send me an email when you become a millionaire and I will find you the perfect home.

The market in Oregon is picking up, sales are up and listings are plentiful. 1st time home buyers need to get on the bandwagon and start using the $8,000 tax credit that the goverment has made available.

I am optimistic for the housing market to turn around. For the last several months sales on existing housing has been up and now with the $8,000 tax credit in full swing I think things will really start moving forward. What a great forecast.

With all of the sunshine that we have been enjoying here in the valley and home prices being better than they have ever been I look forward to working with you in the future!!

If you find a home that you would like and have the purchase go through before April 15th, you can get your tax credit this year. Wouldn't it be great to start all of the improvements that you would like to make on your home right away? Wow! Find your home now!!
