21 days left for the $8000/$6500 Tax Credit
That's only 3 weeks till the Tax Reduction/Credit is scheduled to expire!
We now have a new State buyers tax credit for $10,000.
That takes over where the Federal Credit stops…Close after May 1st,
and you need to be under contract by 12/31/2010.
Limited funding so may not last long. Some say in 2-3 weeks!!!
YES, you can double dip if you are in escrow by 4/30 and closed by 6/30/2010.

5 Reasons why you should be Under Contract by 4/30/2010…or not.
1 Federal Tax Credit Expires 4/30/2010 for 1st timer
2 Double Dip on the State Tax Credit for 1st timer or new construction
3 Free Mortgage Protection Program ends 6/30/2010 for 1st timer
4 Entry Level price homes Rising
5 Interest Rates are Rising
Why you do not need to be under contract by 4/30/10
If you are not ready – timing, finances, home to sell, job uncertainty/relocation or ?
Call me ASAP if you want to be in escrow by the deadline so you can Double Dip!
Or just get a home.
