There may be is a sliver lining to everything even the current “housing crisis” (more to say about that here). It happens to be a very good to time to buy a home in Charlotte especially if you are a first time homebuyer. While prices and transactions may be down the Charlotte home real estate market continues to be reassuringly stable.
So what about this First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit? Is it for me? How does it work?
Here’s what the National Association of Homebuilders says about the homebuyer tax credit program…
“Opportunity of a Lifetime for First-Time Buyers
For aspiring home owners who find their goal stubbornly elusive, newly enacted legislation providing a tax credit of as much as $7,500 for first-time home buyers might just be the opportunity of a lifetime. But like so many of the good things in life, time is of the essence for buyers who want to take advantage of this outstanding opportunity. Only homes purchased on or after April 9, 2008 and before July 1, 2009 are eligible.”
