First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit… Extended and Expanded

The First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit isn’t just for First Time Home Buyers anymore.

Previously the credit only applied to purchasers that hadn’t owned a home during the previous 36 months, and that restriction still applies for crediting the full $8000.  Here is a little bit about the old credit.

You might have noticed a new look…

I am working to better integrate LaneBailey.com and GarageHomesUSA.com.  The first thing of note is that the look is now more cohesive between The two websites, despite LaneBailey.com being built in WordPress and GarageHomesUSA.com being based on Joomla architecture.

One step away from Tax Credit Extension…

Today the House passed the Unemployment Extension Bill by a vote of 403-12.  Yesterday the Senate Bill passed 98-0.  I think it is a slam dunk that the President will sign this legislation in the near future.

The new version of the Homebuyer’s Tax Credit still has the $8000 for First Time Homebuyers, as the version expiring November 30th had.  It also allows $6500 for “move-up” buyers, provided they have been in their home more than 5 years.  There is an income cap of $125,000 for individuals and $225,000 for couples.  Also, there is a price cap of $800,000 for the purchased home.

Groovy Site for First Time Home Owners…

The time is getting late for those that wish to take advantage of the Tax Credit for First Time Home Buyers, but for those that are going to hit the marks, or for others that might be in their first home, here is a pretty cool site that I ran across…

First Home Experience

The company that put the site up is American Home Shield.  They are a home warranty company… keep that in mind as you surf the site.  There is still some good information, and some contests that might net you a few freebies…

If you haven’t already bought a home, and want to get it done before November 30th… the clock is ticking.  Better call me right away…
