Hey Buyers out there, there are tax credits for new as well as existing home owners! Congress extended the previous tax credit of $8,000 for new home buyers as well as created an additional tax credit for current home owners as long as LONG AS you have a contract in place by 4/30/10 and are closed by 6/30/2010.

You should get a hopping if you wish to take advantage of this tax credit. Interest rates are UNDER 5% again but who knows how long that will last!

More information for Buyers who have been thinking about moving off the fence. Marc Roth, Business Week, has an interesting article about the future of interest rates. In his world, that future is not good. We’ll have to see what happens but in my world, this means these interest rates today should be drawing more buyers in.

My personal listings are seeing increased activity in the past few months, and depending on your price point, the cash buyers are starting to make their moves. I’ve had 2 cash offers on homes priced $250,000 and below this past month.

Interesting, yes? Please call me at 425-356-9177 if you’re interested in looking at a house or property!
