The tax credit that was scheduled to end at the end of November has been extended until June 30, 2010. You must have a signed purchase contract in place by April 30, 2010. It is for first time home buyers, meaning you have not owned a home in the last 3 years and it is up to a maximum of $8000.
They have also made it to include existing homeowners who have owned a home for the last 5 consecutive out of the last 8 years and it is to a maximum of $6500.
If you are a fist time home buyer and do not take advantage of this you are throwing away valuable dollars that can be used against your tax liability.
