Where did Summertime go? $8000 Tax Credit alert!!   Summer is waning, the days are getting shorter, school is starting in many parts of the country, here school will be in full swing next week.  Where is summer?  The trip to the beach was too short, the drive to the mountains, in whatever way you escaped this summer it is time to get back to the everyday, the humdrum.

OK, summer isn't really over, not yet, not until Labor Day, and that is 2 weeks away, plus its still 103 degrees here.  Well, folks, Labor Day is going to slip past us real fast, and the heat will ease up and it's Football Season again. 

Did you mean to get a new home this summer?  Get part of that $8000 Tax Credit for yourself and your family?  Its not too late if you start to take action now.  The IRS definition of a FIRST TIME HOME BUYER is some who has not owned a home in the past 3 years.  There are a few other qualifications like, single income of under $75,000 or double income of under $150,000 and the home must be purchased  by November 20,2009.
