Tax Credit for First Time Buyers to Be Extended? Who knows

By
Real Estate Agent with EXP Realty of California Inc. DRE 01022275

Los Angeles Times article details how political forces are trying to extend the deadline for the $8,000 tax credit to first time home buyers that is set to EXPIRE November 30, 2009. This is a little over 90 days from now, leaving 30 days or so to shop for a 60 day escrow. Considering that many first time buyers keep homes less than 3 years, it can have the effect of lowering monthly costs by $222. It is an amazing opportunity, and they intensity of buyers in the first time price ranges is intense.

We have a portfolio of distressed properties that would be great buys for first timeowners, contact me if I can help!

I know my clients would love to see an extension! I am a full time agent but during Tax Season I have to take a little hiatus to prepare returns! The two compliment each other nicely and I am pulling for the extension for both reasons!
