The $8,000 first time home buyer tax credit is expiring on Dec. 1 of 2009. This means you have to be closed and funded on November 30th.
Buyers, the average loan is taking 45 to 60 days to close right now. If you are even remotely thinking about buying get out today. My recommendation is that you have to be under contract by Oct. 1st with Oct. 15 pushing the line. Hundreds if not thousands of people in our area will be trying to take advantage of this credit in the coming months. This will cause banks to get busier and slower. Lets get out and start looking today.
Sellers, now is the time to get your house on the market soon. With buyers out looking to get their home purchased soon, this is a great time for you. Don’t miss out on this opportunity.
Below are 2 fliers containing information about the tax credit. I have also attached a link from an article I found with some great details on the program.
