So long, farewell to the Home Buyer Tax Credit... but it's still a great time to buy a home... probably the best time ever! If you have a home under contract prior to April 30, 2010 then you may still be able to take advantage of the tax credit.
But if you're in the market for a home and you didn't get a chance to capitalize on the tax credit all is not lost. With property prices already low and staying relatively flat combined with truly historic low interest rates, a home buyer can capitalize on the best of both worlds. Rarely is there a time when both housing prices and interest rates are this low at the same time.
Buying a home now can save you 1000's as opposed to buying later. Why???? Because when interest rates move up a 1/2% to 1% that can increase your housing payment by $300 - $400 per month or more depending on your loan amount, not to mention the additional cost of housing when prices begin to move up. So take advantage of the market while you can instead of later saying, "Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda."
