Desperately Seeking Charlotte is what last minute- first time buyers are doing right now.

Well you could see this scenario coming from way back in February. Fortunately, there is a cornucopia of homes here in Charlotte, still nicely priced and available. Unfortunately, we are on the last lap of the race. Charlotte Night Race

Who knows if the government will extend the November 30 deadline? I don’t work well using rumors as a guideline. What I do know is that we are down to the last couple days that are border-line to receive the $8K tax credit. I just got a call yesterday from a very anxious buyer. We are jumping hoops to ensure he can close in time.

Others seeking Charlotte this weekend will be NASCAR® race fans. The Banking 500 will bring the need for speed.

So pick your race this weekend.  I will be ready for any last minute Buyer to handle last minute pit manuvers. There definitely will be a winner come Monday morning.

Claude --- you are right -- anyone buying now is really pushing the envelope to close in time for the $8,000 rebate.

Liz - It surely is a small window to get it done. No promises from me.

Now this is a great way to picture this last leg of the tax race!  We're averaging about 60 days to close so it'd be a very very tight race.  Of course cash would win the race every time!

Anna - Spoken like a true race fan Realtor(r) We'll do our darndest to see if we can "Limbo" under the Date. Limbo lower now... Of course cash works, but I doubt many $8k seekers have that much. Thanks for stopping by. Cheers !

Well I never thought I'd say this, but I feel for the mortgage reps who will be working their bums to the bone over the next 45 days!

Our preferred lender has told us that if a buyer is not already in a contract as of a few days ago, then they can't get it closed in time for the credit.

JL - It may be too late for some. I have a lender that told me Monday is his deadline. After that no promises. I am not making any promises
