first time home buyer tax credit: Homebuyer Tax Credit Deadline NOT Extended. House to approve Reid Extension Ammendment - 06/17/10 10:59 AM
Dana's telling the truth... It's NOT a done deal. Via None: News wires are buzzing with reports that the Senate just approved an extension of the homebuyer tax credit's June 30 closing deadline. THESE HEADLINES ARE MISLEADING!!! The June 30 closing deadline has not been extended...but it was accepted as an amendment to the Tax Extenders Bill. Under the amendment, borrowers who signed purchase contracts by April 30 would be given three extra months to close their loan and still qualify for the homebuyer tax credit. The new deadline would be September 30, 2010. In a budget "point of

first time home buyer tax credit: Home Buyer Tax Credit for the rest of you - 11/06/09 12:24 PM
It looks like the first time home buyer tax credit is being extended and there's also Home Buyer Tax Credit for the rest of you, or a lot of non - first time home buyers. The bill passed the senate. The bill passed the house. The bill needs the presidents signature. I just saw on Twitter that it has been signed by President Obama. Home Buyer Tax Credit for the rest of you Up to $6,500 for move up buyers. If you've lived in your home 5 of the past 8 years... I'm looking for something like this chart:

first time home buyer tax credit: Time is money - Interest Rates - 06/05/09 11:29 AM
Diagnosis: "interest rate complacency...." In The Price of Procrastination Newnan Georgia Lender Darrell Walters says of the mortgage interest rates available now: "These rates are artificially low! Historically, interest rates have been above 6.00%. And any rate obtained below this number is a great deal, especially on homes with price tags from 2003!" Interest rates are low.
