First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit

There was a lot of attention paid to this a few months ago when it was first introduced, but everyone has kind of let it slide to the back burner since then… and that is a shame because this is an interesting time to be in the real estate market as a buyer.

First, let me cover a few basics:

  • While termed a “First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit”. it really isn’t any of those things…
    • If you haven’t owned a home for 36 months

Black Friday Shopping? Save $100,000

Ok, you’ve seen the TV commercials and scoured the Thanksgiving paper.  You know that the best deals require that you get to the store by 5:00am… or even 4:00am, right?

Sleep in, call me, and let’s go get you a new house (ok, a new to you house…) and save $100,000.  That is even better than picking up a new flat screen for $300 off!

I have found a few deals.  They range in price from around

Happy Thanksgiving… Have some turkey

I thought I would share a few real turkeys for Thanksgiving.

My son and I are sitting here having just finished the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade (please, Producer… if you are watching, more marching bands, less Hollywood and Broadway!) and we are now watching the National Dog Show.

I thought it would be a good time to take a moment and come up with some turkeys while the toy Dog group is showing…  Personally I like the Sporting group and the Hound group.

Gwinnett Home Values

The Case-Shiller Index of home prices came out yesterday.  It is an interesting index because it concentrates of resales and looks at the new prices of properties that have previously sold.  In theory, it is tracking the same houses over time to see what values are doing.

In looking at the methodology, I think that there are some weaknesses in the way things are looked at, but the data is still  interesting and relevant.

‘Twas a month before Christmas…

Ok, when I sent Ken the “adaptation” of ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas, I had no idea he was going to post it on Utterli…  Here is the link of him reading it. you can also find the original post here… on LilburnDwellings.com.

I was reading ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas to my son a couple of nights ago, and had the idea for the post…  The first couple of lines were already in my head and so I sat down this morning to knock out the rest of it before it made me crazy.

Feel free to bop over the LilburnDwellings and read the post…  Maybe I’ll do a dramatic reading of it soon…  I might need to clean it up a little more to get the flow closer.  But I have been wanting to try out Utterli…  I made an account yesterday (I’m LaneBailey on Utterli) so I am ready to go with that.
