Real Estate Agent with Keller-Williams

ALERT! Tax Credit Expires December 1, 2009 - Don't Miss Out

jackpotTired of never catching a break? Then now is the time to get off the bench and into the game if you want to take advantage of The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and catch a break in buying your first home. This unprecedented incentive is meant to lighten the burden for first time homebuyers while stimulating the economy.

A tax credit of up to $8,000 is still available for qualified first-time homebuyers purchasing a principal residence on or after January 1, 2009 and before December 1, 2009. This tax credit provides an ‘Outstanding Opportunity' for those who qualify. Don't be the one who waits until the opportunity presented passes you by, leaving you on the sidelines of owning a home.

Frankly, it really doesn't get any better than this. $8,000 is a lot of money and could be considered a "windfall." That's a lot of incentive to close on your new home if you are a first time homebuyer. In fact, it's being compared to "Hitting the Jackpot."  If you ever needed motivation to get you out of the renting cycle and into your first home, this is it!

But time is running out to take advantage of the $8,000 Tax Credit for First Time Home Buyers. The window of opportunity is closing in to qualify for the first time homebuyer tax credit. All purchases must be completed by November 30, 2009 and that date is closing in quickly. So unless you love to take risks and gamble, now is the time to get going and finalize a contract so you don't miss out and risk losing this valuable tax credit.

If you wait too long, you could stand to lose $8,000 in free money. If you qualify, this is a sure bet so what are you waiting for? Realtor® Rachel Valentino suggests not waiting but getting started now. She says there is still time to get the legwork done and still qualify for the tax credit. By contacting her now, there is still time to find your dream home and gather your down payment. By starting now, you will also leave enough time to write an offer, finalize your financing and close before the deadline. Don't be the gambler who loses the farm by waiting till the last minute!
