Waiting for Homebuyer Tax Credit Extension
Work is under way in the Senate to extend the credit.
Housing industry insiders fear the residential market's recovery will likely be hurt if the tax credit expires. The National Association of Realtors claims first-time buyers account for 50 percent of all sales.
Congress is moving toward extending, expanding or replacing the tax credit. The Senate is expected to vote soon on a bill co-sponsored by Georgia Republican Johnny Isakson that would extend the deadline five months to April 30, 2010, and make the credit available to all new home buyers, not just to first-timers.
The new legislation would extend the $8,000 credit for first-time buyers and create a $6,500 credit for others so long as they have owned a home for at least five consecutive years since 2001.
Cincinnati area Realtor Michelle Sloan says, "Extending the credit and expanding it to all homebuyers will have a positive effect on the local and national economy. The extension will give buyers time to save money for downpayment and find the perfect home for their needs."

Tax Credit Countdown - It's Not Too Late
The first-time home buyers tax credit ends Nov. 30. That means a buyer must close on a property on or before that date in order to qualify for the $8,000 credit. Is it possible to buy in the next two weeks and still close in time to collect it? Some professionals say yes.
"It still can be done in six weeks," says Sibcy Cline Realtor Michelle Sloan. "I suggest buyers have an accepted contract in place with a seller before October 15th, to be sure they will close in time."
Economist Kevin Gillen of Econsult predicts a mad rush to close as the deadline nears.
Bruce Hahn, president of the American Homeowners Grassroots Alliance in Arlington, Va., is pushing for an extension and an expansion of the credit. Legislation to do that is critical, he says, because the recovery has so far been mostly jobless and people need more time to get their feet on the ground in order to buy.
