Good news! If you're considering a move into the DeSoto School District (USD 232) or are already a part of it, your child's education will be in good hands.

shawnee ks: June 30th Tax Credit Deadline Nears
- 06/29/10 07:25 AM
As the June 30th deadline nears for the First-Time/Repeat Home Buyers tax credit, many people were hoping for another extension.

The National Association of Realtors estimates that approximately 180,000 qualified home-buyers will miss out on the credit by not closing tomorrow. Had the amendment passed, it would have extended the closing deadline until September. Rumors abound that the extension may not dead yet. Even if something … (1 comments)
