"Now's the Time to Make Your Move" Many people in the greater Lansing Michigan real estate market are concerned about how today's challenging economic environment might affect their ability to buy a home, or even whether they should become homeowners right now. Real estate remains a wonderful long-term investment compared to renting.
The greater Lansing real estate market will see an increase in home sales as a result of the Federal Housing Administration program to allow qualified home buyers to apply the $8,000 tax credit when purchasing a home. This true tax break is for first-time home buyers.
You can get Internal Revenue Information here and the Tax Credit Form here.
With This tax break, historically low interest rates, sellers willing to negotiate, and plenty of homes to choose from, I would advise anyone wanting the American dream of home ownership to begin the process by searching for homeson the Internet, becoming acquainted with the process of mortgage
pre-qualification and move forward.
Here is a place to obtain a copy of a FREE Home-buyers Guide Book with step by step guides for preparing your house hunting adventure.
As I mentioned above; Real estate is first and foremost an investment, that will sometimes perform well and sometimes not. However for those looking long term, it has almost always performed well. The key is buying with the intention to hold long term. Property ownership equity accounts for more than half the wealth in the United States. It is never a bad time to buy real estate.
