How does the buyer tax credit work?

◂ Back to Posts

“There are two different Buyer tax credits available.  The first is the First Time Home Buyer tax credit, which is an $8,000 tax credit available to first time home buyers.  In order to be eligible, you must have a contract on a house by April 30th, 2010 and must close on the house by July 1, 2010.   The other tax credit is a $6,500 tax credit offered for Buyers who are current homeowners and have resided in the same house, as their primary residence, for at least 5 consecutive years prior to the purchase/closing date.  Both tax credits have limitations on income level and price of property.  It is best to consult with your accountant and/or real estate agent to get full information and details.  Remember, there are only 15 days left!”
