New homebuyer tax credit

 

A new tax credit for homebuyers has been enacted and there are some changes. Income limits have been increased and it is no longer restricted to First Time Homebuyers.

I have included a chart below from the National Association of Realtors. This is the best illustration I have seen so far and will help answer many questions. I have heard positive feedback from those that have called the IRS from the phone numbers found on their website, irs.gov. Hold times are short and you can easily get to a human being!!

The effective date of this new credit is November 6, 2009 as that is the day this was signed into law!!

I hope this is helpful for those with questions.

As you can see, the income limits were increased to include more participants in the program as well as the inclusion of buyers who have previously owned a home.

I found it interesting that they put an income cap, but then are allowing $20k extra... why not just make the higher amount the actual cap?  Who writes this stuff?

Tom, what a clear and easy to understand presentation of the changes.  Glad they raised the income cap.
