Worth Your Time

Here are a couple of items you ought to take a look at.

My friend, Jim Duncan says it so well, I can't improve on it. Sellers should read this.

If you're a first time home buyer and are excited about the new tax credit just passed by Congress, there's a web site designed to give you all the answers on this program and how to take advantage of it. This site is provided by the National Association of Home Builders. The tax credit is different than what was originally proposed so it's worth taking a look at the details.

In fact, I got it wrong on my earlier blog on this bill. I hadn't seen the final details. The tax credit now applies to any home you buy, as long as it's your primary residence! Exciting news!

RE: Worth Your Time

Thank you so much for telling us about that web site.   I work with a lot of first time home buyers and that is good information.

In the business of working through transactions especially foreclosures, I find it hard to keep current on all the changes affecting our industry.   Every night I bring a stack of reading home and seldom get it read.   This forum is a way to get the "quick and dirty" news.         Elinor Arendt

Elinor,

I know exactly what you mean! It seems like I could spend all my time working on just being the best informed real estate broker out there. Of course, then I'd have no time to work with actual clients!
