$8000 1st Time Home Buyer Tax Credit Gets Better!

I wrote a few weeks ago about the state and federal tax credits that are available to Utahns who buy a new home (see Utah Home Buyers Can Save Up To $14000).  Now the $8000 federal portion of this benefit has gotten even better, thanks to recent action taken by the Obama Administration.

The Economic Recovery Act's $8,000 homebuyer tax credit was designed to provide financial help to enable first-time home buyers (defined as anyone who has not owned a home in the last three years), to purchase a home during these economically difficult times, under the following conditions:

• Must be a first-time homebuyer
• Must purchase the home before November 30, 2009
• Must file a tax return in 2010 to receive up to $8,000 tax credit 

The difficulty of this homebuyer tax credit incentive was that the tax credit was not available to the homebuyer until next year, when the 2010 tax return was filed.  Under the revised program, homebuyers may access the tax credit immediately and use the funds toward their downpayment and other closing costs at the time of the home purchase--no more waiting until the tax return is filed.  Here are the new rules:

• Applies only to FHA loans
• The tax credit becomes immediately available through a "bridge" or short-term loan
• The funds cannot be used to pay for the initial 3.5% down payment required by lenders
• But, the funds can be used to pay closing costs and any additional down payment

Making these funds available to first-time homebuyers immediately can go a long way toward making a home purchase more affordable by reducing the upfront costs to the buyer and by potentially reducing the interest rate on the buyer's mortgage.

Call today for more information on how this new program can help you get into a new home.  Or speak with your lender directly for all the details on this incentive.  And don't forget the $6,000 incentive offered by the state of Utah to anyone who buys a new construction home.  With both these incentives, there really is no better time to buy a home in Utah!
