First time home buyer’s and those that have not owned a home in the last 3 years are really making the most of the Federal First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit!  Several buyer’s that I have been working with are not only going to benefit from the tax credit but also local cities grants and state bond money.  What a remarkable year this will be for these home buyer’s.  One in particular is going to receive $7,500 from the tax credit and an additional $5,000 from the city grant!  This first time home buyer is the beneficiary of $12,500 dollars in real money!

If you have been waiting for some reason to purchase your first home or haven’t owned your own home in the last 3 years, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?  Get out there and find a great Realtor who will help you find a home that will work for you.  Do this before the deadline of November 30, 2009.  You must close on the house by the 11/30/09 deadline.  Your Realtor will tell you that you need to be under contract for this home no later than September 15^th to insure that you do not miss this deadline.
