Federal Tax Credit Extended & Expanded


The federal tax credit program (extension and expansion) for home buyers was signed into law on Nov. 6, 2009.

As you know, the extended and expanded program is available to both first-time buyers AND existing homeowners (who qualify). There are income limits.

The tax credit is available for “principal” residences only (vacation homes and rental properties are excluded). Maximum purchase price is $800,000.
