More Good News to Stimulate Home Sales
by Scott Thompson
It was recently announced that the Federal Housing Authority is allowing a first-time home buyer to use the $8,000 tax credit to help with the down payment to purchase a home. FHA loans have recently been the loan of choice, especially with first-time home buyers. This is because of historically-low interest rates; a borrower can put down as little as 3.5 percent to purchase a home. Now that the $8,000 tax credit can also be used as a down payment with the FHA financing, it makes purchasing a home even more appealing and economically feasible for some.
There are some basic requirements that must be met to be eligible for the $8,000 tax credit. The tax credit is for up to 10 percent of the purchase price up to a maximum of $8,000. One of the requirements is that the buyer must not have owned a home in the past three years. There are also income restrictions for individuals and couples.
