TAX
RELIEF TO HOMEOWNERS

If you are struggling with your payments and are thinking of
either refinancing or letting your house go back to the bank…Please give me a
call so we can talk about all of your options. Please look at this link as the this
tax relief is due to expire at the end of the year. This allows homeowners that
are seeking reduction in their principal via refinance or short sale to not
claim it as income. As always I recommend you talk to your accountant. If you
need a referral to a good accountant give me a call or email me and I will get
you in touch with someone that I work closely with. I am always here to help answer any questions
you have regarding your home.

VA Tax Extension ALERT  don’t throw away $8,000 or $6,500   Act before April 30, 2011

Anyone in the US Military who was deployed on active duty for at least 90 days from December 31, 2008 to May 1, 2010 there is still time for you to take advantage of the extended (not to mention significant) tax credit.

The tax credit applies to first time home buyers as well as repeat home buyers! You have until April 30th to get a binding sales contract in place. Below is some specific information for your use including a link to all the information on the federal housing tax credit.

I’m happy to go over numbers with you to determine the price range for which you are qualifie for.

Remember – we have until June 30th to get your loan funded but you only have to be in contract by April 30th. That gives you about a month to get a contract in place!!
