Tax Credit for 1st Time Buyers and Current Homeowners

We received great news last week regarding the tax credits for purchasing a home. The 1st time homebuyer tax credit has been extended. Along with that, the government has issued a new tax credit for current homeowners. Buyers who have owned their current homes at least five years would be eligible for tax credits of up to $6,500. First-time homebuyers — or anyone who hasn't owned a home in the last three years — would still get up to $8,000. To qualify, buyers in both groups have to sign a purchase agreement by April 30, 2010, and close by June 30.
