$8000 First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit - Top Ten List by Bo Kociuba, Realtor, www.Okla-OK.com

 

 

This is an outstanding opportunity for the First Time Home Buyers.

The Congress has signed into law the legislation providing first time home buyers with a credit of $8000!

Time is of the essence. The home purchase must happen before December 1st, 2009. This is really not a lot of time to check one's credit report, FICO Score, take care of needed repairs or corrections, find a responsible and reputable mortgage lender, shop  for most suitable financing option, finding friendly and knowledgeable Realtor, start the house search quest,  arrange for sale of a current house, include vacations, save for down payment, everyday life etc, etc...all of these take a lot of time and lots of planning.  To find information about location, neighborhood, schools etc is not an easy and quick task. But don't worry. You are not alone, you have a friend in the business!

Let's meet together and I will help you plan for new home ownership.

Shirley - Thanks, had a little 'blondie challenge' when my photoshop skills didn't go very far while changing it from 7500 to 8000...lol...

Gary - I am trying to put it in a simpler form for my future buyers
