tax credit: Tax Credit Deadline just around the corner.
- 04/09/10 01:52 AM
Well according to my desktop countdown clock there are 21 day until the deadline for being under contract. Closing will be another issue. I already have clients calling me with comments about how their lender is not being responsive and betting back to them in a timely manor. I have heard many say the stimulus hasn't really done anything for the housing market; I guess we will see in May. It has made a difference with the group I work with; first time home buyers. I enjoy first time home buyers and guiding them through this process. I had the opportunity (2 comments)

This is going to be an interesting day. In addition to hosting a 100 guest cocktail party fund raiser for a local grass roots organization, I am trying to wrap up what has been a busy week with new listings trying to get out there before the deadline runs out for the tax credit. The weather is not cooperating. We have debated the tax credit issue in our office for the last couple of weeks now that everyone seems to have a related story. I was told that our state representative is asking people to forward information on clients that bought using (3 comments)

It is wonderful the way we meet people in this business. My friend and now client, John has been talking with a couple where he works and gave them my name.

They really enjoy living in Louisville, but their home is in Colorado and they would like to get back one day. I have been working with them now for a couple of weeks. They have been working diligently to get the house ready to sell. I think it looks (0 comments)

Well the (Louisville) holidays are over; back to work. That isn't all together true; I did do a little work over the weekend, but still managed to play a little also. We went to the Down and Derby Fund Raiser at the Louisville Water Tower. It was a lot of fun and we ran into folks we don't see too often. We also went to an Oaks Lunch in Germantown. That is always a good time and I usually meet some interesting people. Had a great discussion about home efficiency and water conservation. I love running into people who know a lot (0 comments)
tax credit: Facts on the Home Buyers Tax Credit.
- 02/18/09 03:45 AM
As I was discussing in the last blog entry, the house stimulus has been debated and I wasn't quite sure what the credit would be for buyer and how it would be applied or paid back. Today, one day after the Stimulus Package was signed in Denver, here are the numbers that were posted on the National Associations of Home Builders website. Although I have not been able to find a definitive number, I have read that the overall total of foreclosures is still relatively low. Unlike the divorce rate, the foreclosure rate is still in the single digits from the (0 comments)
