Due to new legislation signed on Nov 6th, the $8,000 first time home
buyer  tax credit has been extended until April 30th of t
his year. The
new
deadline will give another chance for buyers to benefit from this
historic stimulus package. In addition, a tax credit of $6,500 will be
available for long term homeowners who wish to upgrade to a new
home.
(IRS info here)

1) $8,000 tax credit

If you have not owned a primary home for three years or more then
you might qualify for the first time home buyer tax credit of $8,000. This
is a refundable credit and you don't have to pay it back.

2) $6,500 Tax Credit

If you have owned your home for more than 5 years you could qualify
for the a 6,500 tax credit. This is good news for current homeowners
who felt left out of the previous stimulus bills.

If you are a first time buyer or interested in upgrading
your home, and would like to take advantage of the
current market conditions I am happy to meet with you
to get started. Send me an email or give me a call at
503-788-7103.  To begin receiving listings by email go
