Okay, so I guess I'll go ahead and begin this blogging thing! =) There really is so much to share when it comes to real estate, as well as just life in general. My holdup is finding the time and making it a routine to blog. So here it goes. The first of many, I'm sure...

I guess the most urgent information right now is the deadline for the tax credit! We only have 45 days to finalize any contracts for buyers in order to meet the deadline for the tax credit. First-time homebuyers can get up to an $8000 tax credit for contracts written before April 30, 2010, and which close by June 30, 2010. That is a pretty good incentive to go ahead and buy! Great interest rates, along with affordable housing, with a tax credit on top makes it hard to beat finding that perfect home in the next month and a half!

If you are interested in purchasing a home, be sure to be on top of the market for good buys! Many other buyers are looking now as well, and when you find a good buy, don't wait around! Make up your mind and go ahead and get the contract in, so you don't lose it to another savvy buyer!

Just a little advice for today! Hope you all are living joyfully!
