2010 Real Estate Tax Credit Extension
November 21st, 2009 by Robert Guice
Obama did it again. The $8,000 tax credit for first-time home buyers has been extended! That’s right, if you’re looking to buy a home in Austin, the government is giving you more time to take advantage of the home buyer tax credit.
In fact, those who aren’t first-time home buyers can now even benefit from the government’s plan to boost the real estate market. You can buy a home in Austin and receive a $6,500 tax credit, even if you already own a home.
How does it work?
- The $8,000 tax credit is for first time home buyers (who have not owed a home over the last 3 years) and $6,500 for home owners who have lived in their home consecutively 5 out of the last 8 years.
- The tax credit DOES NOT have to be repaid (as long as you keep your home for a
minimum of 3 years) - Qualifying beyond that requires that a couple earn less than $225,000 per year.
Qualifying individuals must earn less than $125,000 a year.
