Only 67 days to Tax Credit Deadline

Are you thinking of buying a home in time to qualify for the federal tax credit?

Many first-time homebuyers will qualify for an $8,000 credit and some existing homeowners will qualify for a $6,500 tax credit if they purchase before April 30, 2010. The following link, sponsored by the National Association of Home Builders, provides information about the key requirements to qualify for the credit.
