Interest rates are still around 4.75%. This is very impressive.
The housing market seems to be stabilizing. One reason could be the reduction of inventory. Analysts say that the stabilization of the market doesn’t mean that prices will rise anytime soon. Some think the supply will decline below the pre-2006 levels by the end of 2009. This is very encouraging.

First-time buyers who have not had interest in a principal residence for three years are still eligible, and the maximum amount remains the same $8,000 for married couples, $4,000 for those filing separately.
Current homeowners, who have consecutively maintained the home they want to sell as their primary residence for five of the last eight years, are also eligible. However, the maximum amount for those homeowners is lower: $6,500 for married couples and $3,200 for those filing separately.
The tax credit may not used to purchase a home for more than $800,000. All buyers who want to get the credit must include documentation of the purchase on their tax returns.
The income limits for both tax credits have been raised to $125,000 for single buyers and $225,000 for married couples.
This is a major victory for consumers, REALTORS® and the housing market.

From what I am reading the outlook for the economy appears to be improving gradually. Mortgage rates today are around 4.75%! Very nice! The economy seems to be experiencing moderate growth with low inflation so far. Housing starts also moved a bit higher. It appears there is a 2% growth since last November. The first time tax credit is still available but not for much longer unless they change the law.

Purchasing a home is no doubt the biggest investment you will ever make. Homeownership has many benefits but also brings responsibility.
It is important that you have a steady income and steady employment history for at least 2 years. You must have a good credit history. It is important that you can not only make your house payment but also have extra for maintaining your home.
When purchasing a home you need to consider the changes it brings. You need your monthly payment to fit into a decent budget so you will not be cash poor and can afford to enjoy eating out or some sort of entertainment once in awhile.

Time will be running out for first time home buyers to take advantage of the $8,000 tax credit. You have to close on your property by Nov. 30th and it is taking up to 45 days to close a loan so all interested buyers need to get a wiggle on or it will soon be too late.

"I'm no artist, but I know what I like!" This is a commonly heard remark reflecting the fact that the ability to send a message to others by what you allow them to see is skill we don't all have.
You want the inside of your home to say something about you and your family to visitors. You know what you wish to say, but may be unsure how to say it. If so, you need an interior decorator.
Finding the right one is important in creating the look you wants in your home, at a price that is within your budget. Firms that do this work often exhibit different styles, either on their own premises or publicly elsewhere. The place where you buy your furniture may be able to recommend several, or have a particular one available at little or no cost to assist you.
Whoever you get should be a good listener, with the skill to hear what you want to say and the ability to help you say it.
