Are You in Your Dream Home?

Are you living in your dream home? A simple yes or no to this question. So, you are asking yourself is this my "forever" home? Do I like my floorplan? Is there a neighborhood that you have driven through just because you like the feel of the surroundings and the homes. This is something that you need to ask yourself when saying yes or no.

The government offering tax credits not only for 1st time homebuyers, is now having other possible buyers/current homeowners think through their financial situations to decide if they want to take advantage of the $6500.00 tax credit and the low interest rates we are currently experiencing.

If you have lived in your home for 5 years consecutively out of the last 8 years then you qualify. This tax credit and the 1st time tax credit expire 4/30/2010 to have an accepted offer/contract. The contract then has to close by 06/30/2010. Most real estate experts say there will be no more of these offered after the above dates.

If you are thinking about moving, give it some serious thought, the 1st quarter will be strong in the Kansas City Metro Area, due to the credits and the interest rates. If you have questions or want to find out more about this information....please contact The Diva Team.
