APRIL 30, 2010
That is when the home buyer tax credit expires. No kidding. No rumors of extensions.
GONE.
If you are a first time homebuyer, you must close on your new home by April 30, 2010 to collect up to $8,000 in tax benefits.
Other buyers who may qualify for the “Step Up” Home buyer credit must be in contract by April 30, 2010 with a closing no later than July 1, 2010 to collect up to $6,500. My blog post on the tax credit extension has a complete guideline for your review.
The clock is running out on your chance to buy a new home while the prices are at historic lows, the rates are still very good
AND you will get a tax credit!
