Buy Your First Home Now And Get The Federal Government To Help Pay For It - Don't Miss This Boat!

By:


Buying a new home is a huge commitment in any economy let alone one where foreclosures and job cuts are running rampant. Ordinarily, you would be quite right to be wary about purchasing a home under these circumstances. The good news, however, is that President Obama's stimulus package has really sweetened the deal for prospective first time home buyers or buyers who haven't purchased a home in the last three years. There are essentially three ways the government can help you, which in conjunction with one another, could very well make this the perfect time to buy a new home.

Firstly, if you are worried about coming up with the down payment to buy your new home, the government will help you pay for it. You will not have to come up with the full 10 percent on your own.

Secondly, the Obama government is lowering home interest rates for you. Interest is always a huge consideration when you finance your home but with the federal government slashing the rate by a couple of percentage points, the financial burden becomes much easier to manage.

Thirdly, you can receive a tax credit of 10 percent of the purchase price of your home (up to $8,000) on your tax return. This is a dollar by dollar reduction in taxes you owe or increase in your tax refund. You do not have to pay this money back unless your home ceases to be your primary residence in the three years following your purchase. Some restrictions and conditions do apply but this is still a great deal if you qualify.

If you act now, you can potentially save thousands of dollars because President Obama and the federal government want to kick-start the housing market. Opportunities such as this are hard to come by so make sure you take advantage of it while it lasts to fulfill you dream of having your own home.
