This is a great analysis on the new tax credit legislation. Everyone who is iterested in buying or selling in the near future needs to understand these dates and guidelines.
Below is a chart prepared by the National Association of REALTORS ® comparing the new changes to the Homebuyer Tax Credit.
The biggest change is that current Homeowners are now eligible if they sell their current homes and then buy AFTER the date of enactment of this extension which is November 6th, 2009.
Because of widespread incidents of fraud, purchasers must now attach documentation proving they actually bought a qualifying home to qualify for the credit.
Additinally the income guidelines have been increased, now a single taxpayer can qualify if they earn up to $125,000 and up to $225,000 for married taxpayers.
The rationale for increasing the income limits and expanding the credit to existing homeowner is that it should encourage more higher priced home purchases. Currently the existing tax credit was driving mostly lower end purchases.

Speechless Sunday - Another enjoyable day in Franklin. The birds chirping, the wind blowing, green grass and blue sky. Oh yes, and the sound of big block vintage V8 engines on deserted Franklin roads.

Halloween in Brentwood, Tn is great. "Even the candy is better!" exclaimed one of my new neighbors. I helped her buy her house this summer. Life on our little cul-de-sac is fun. The kids can play outside in a swarm and nobody worries. (We all watch out our windows and the kids scared some poor sales person away screaming "stranger danger" and pointing at her.) So, after trick-or-treating for only and hour my two kids returned with 13 pounds of candy. The good stuff..Snickers and Kit Kats and Whoppers OH MY!
The moral of the story? Brentwood Tn is a wonderful place to call home.
