Catch a Break

Who says you can’t get a break when you buy a home? A new tax law for homebuyers may give you the break you’re looking for – a tax credit of up to $8,000.

You may qualify for a first-time homebuyer credit worth up to $8,000 if neither you or your spouse, if you are married, have owned a home in the past three years. If you’re looking to buy a replacement home, you may qualify for up to $6,500. Income and other restrictions apply, but most of you can now claim a credit.

Just have a contract by April 30, 2010, close by June 30, 2010 and get cash back on your tax return. “Home Sweet Home” never sounded so good!
