First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit

I know everyone is tired of hearing about this, but the fact of this is if you or someone you know is eligible and even considering buying a new home they need to call me at 777-HOME (4663) to learn the details. Don't depend on the government extending it. It might not happen. And it is just too good to pass up. Loan eligibly just might be easier than you think in spite of all the stories you hear.

The bottom line is it is a THREE Way Winner.

1. $8000 cash to the buyer from the US Government.

2. The real estate market is featuring bargain basement prices.

3. The interest rates are great. ( and you do not have to have a down payment to pull this off).

If you know someone in the market for a new home at the great terms available today please give them my number 777-home (4663) or e-mail george.margrave@migonline.com and we will take care of it.

I went to a function last week where the speaker Theresa Wilson from the Williamson County Association of REALTORS was the speaker. Here is something she said which got my attention. The average Realtor in our area has about six years experience. So until recently the market share for FHA loans in this most recent decade was very small. So most of our Realtors are not familiar with FHA financing. That is where we come in. My team has been financing homes in a big way with FHA since 1985. It is by far the best way for a buyer with minimum funds for closing to buy that new home. (also for refinances where small amounts of equity are problematic) And yours truly is the one to contact. We will make it so easy, the Realtor won't even know it is different from what they are used to. My number is 777- HOME (4663) and e-mail is george.margrave@migonline.com.

Tennessee's a Desirable Place to Live!

A recently released Harris Interactive poll asked Americans where they would choose to live if they did not live in the state where they are now. 2,498 U.S. adults were surveyed online between August 10 and 18, 2009, and Tennessee made the top 10!

1. California

2. Florida

3. Hawaii

4. Texas

5. Colorado

6. Arizona

7. North Carolina

8. Washington state

9. TENNESSEE

10. Oregon

Of course, we already knew that it's great to be in Tennessee! So let's see. Interest rates are near record lows and prices for homes are rolled back to levels we saw 4 years ago.

Why haven't you called me yet at 777- HOME (4663) .

Spread the Link & Spread the Word!

Time is running out on the First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit! Unless this program is extended by Congress -- and we hope it IS -- a homebuyer is eligible for the tax credit ONLY if the home is "purchased" before December 1, 2009.

That means that buyers have to find a house, complete a contract, satisfy any contingencies, secure financing and go to closing by November 30. Accomplishing those tasks by November 30 will become more difficult with every passing day. In today's market, it generally takes between 45 and 60 days to go from contract to closing.

This is from the Tennessee Association of Realtors and I couldn't say it better myself.
