First time homebuyers tax credit information on becoming a homeowner

 

The opportunity of a lifetime is at hand.  Plenty of homes are available at affordable prices.  Interest rates remain historically low and to sweeten the pot, there is a tax credit available for qualified first-time buyers whose income is within IRS-established limits.  Must close prior to November 30, 2009 to receive a tax credit up to $8,000.

A few tax credit basics:

  • Must be considered a first time home buyer if neither you or your spouse has owned a principal residence in the U.S. within the last 3 years.
  • Must close prior to November 30, 2009
  • Can claim the credit when you file your 2009 tax return.  Or, if you prefer not waiting, file an amended 2008 return and receive the credit upon purchasing your home.

I can't provide every detail of the program and not qualified to give tax advise, but I can help you make sense of the regulations.  Click here for more information.

Don't wait! Give me a call and I can help you decide whether now is the time for you to become a homeowner.  If the time is right, I'd be honored to represent you as you seek out your dream home.

November 30th is fast approaching, call 203-702-1583 or email me lisabrown@remax.net today!  Servicing Fairfield, Litchfield & New Haven Counties.
