Missing an opportunity...
The $8,000 income tax credit for first time homebuyers (as defined by the US Government) expires as of November 30th, unless the Congress extends or modifies the program.
If you are are first time homebuyer, it is now time to get off the fence.
With less than 90 days left until the program expires (you must close the transaction by November 30th) time is short.
And with the new appraisal and truth in lending requirements for home mortgages, transactions are taking longer to close than earlier this year.
Home prices have not been this low since early this decade and mortgage money is still cheap.
Don't be kicking yourself on December 1st for missing this opportunity, it might never happen again.
