July 10, 2009 

Happy Friday and welcome to my website!  Today in Vancouver, Washington temps are expected to reach 85!  Remember sunscreen and drinks lots of water!  Great time to find a new home...the highest priority right now, Air Conditioning!  Plus looking at homes when it's warm is a good indication of how the house responds to heat!

Are you eligible for the $8,000 First-Time Home Buyer Tax Credit?  Here's a link for additional info:  $8,000 Tax Credit Info 

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 authorizes a tax credit of up to $8,000 for qualified first-time home buyers purchasing a principal residence on or after January 1, 2009 and before December 1, 2009.

   There's only 144 days left to take advantage of the tax credit!  That may seem like a lot of time to find a place and get closed, but many lenders are now asking for at least 45 days to close!  And that's AFTER you find the house.  Many buyers take at least a few weeks to locate the house they want to purchase; typically twice as long if you are a first-time home buyer!  In my opinion if you haven't found a house by October 15th, you may NOT make the November 30th closing!  If you are not closed (keys in your hand) before December 1st, you will miss out!  I can help, I work days, evenings and weekend (holidays too) to help you find your new home...and I answer my phone!  Don't wait until the last minute, start your search today, I would love to help you find your new home!

The following links are a direct result feedback from buyers, like you, surfing agent websites for information and letting us know they don't like to have to log in and "jump through hoops" just to get information on Bank Owned properties and they don't want to search all over the website to find them either, so here they are, right on my first page, and NO LOG-IN required, just click and view.  If you find a property that you want more info or want to see, just call us, most of the time we can show you the property the SAME DAY!
