Home Buyer Tax Credit for Veterans good until 2011

The Federal Home buyer Tax Credit is still alive for qualified Veterans.   Members of the U.S. military, Foreign Service and Intelligence Communities still have one more year to purchase a home and claim the home buyer tax credit.  

Any service member who is or has been on extended duty (overseas) for 90 days or more between Jan. 1, 2009 to April 30, 2010, has until April 30, 2011, to sign a purchase contract and until June 30, 2011 to close on the property sale. 

The Extension includes the $8,000 first-time home buyer tax credit and the $6,500 repeat home buyer tax credit.   If a qualified service member receives a Government Order to move within the first three years, the rule that requires buyers to repay the credit if they move out of their home within three years has also been waived.

 

Are you thinking of selling?

Let me help you get your place ready for the market. There are several pages to the left that give you many tips.  Where to start?

 FIRST, Let me come over and take a look. We may have to:

* Declutter or "edit" your stuff.
   That means DEpersonalizing. We  have to
   pack away your cherished family pictures 
   that may line the top of your TV or your
   mantel. The same goes for your Star Trek, 
   Angels, Santa Clauses, Precious Moments, 
   Clocks, Harley Davidson, Dolls, Jack Daniels
   Bottle, etc. collections.
             
* Clean the place thoroughly, and keep it clean.
   That means kitchen and baths especially.

* Paint or touch up if necessary.

* Replace or clean the carpets.

* Maintain the landscaping.
   Plant flowers, trim the shrubs, weed and keep the
   lawn mowed.

* Put the dog, cats, hamsters, reptiles or ferret in an
   inconspicuous place.
   Buyers should not be overly aware you have pets.

* Bring in furniture or accessories.
   If your house is empty, we may have to warm it up
   with art, furniture, candles, comfy towels, or
   call out some charm.

* Empty the garage and / or basement.
   That means either chucking or storing your
   stuff off site. It also pays to paint these areas!

You may very well be a candidate for a Short Sale. I have resources for all this, as well as a team; and together we can stage and sell your home. Call or email while you're thinking about it. 

Now, if you want to BUY a new place, just tell me what you're looking for. We'll find it. There are and will be so many great homes on the market this year!
