Denham Springs, LA

Crystal Lakes....Great neighborhood, but What Happened!?!?!

Lisa Bourgoyne: Real Estate Agent in Walker, LA

Crystal Lakes, a great new development in Denham Springs, LA. Curbs, sidewalks, and gutters, 200+ lots, pool, walking trails, lots of green areas, five springs fed lakes, highly restricted, custom homes only. There is a section for high end garden homes (1500+ LA)for the empty nesters, The Estates, which is surrounded by water, (2500+ LA) and everything in between. Almost all of the lots have water frontage. The location is exceptional, just across the street from North Park, within a block of the proposed Juban extension. Baton Rouge and I12 are just minutes away.

Sounds great doesn't it? And I think it will be. This is a great development by Spaht's Development, a lot of money, time and effort has gone into it. Unfortunately, it has sat on the corner of Lockhart Road and Burgess Lane for 2 years. People pass it by without seeing it any more. Unbeknown to the developer, the final plans and plat had never been submitted for approval by the Parish. No lots or homes could be sold!

Prudential Gardner Realtors have taken over the marketing and we've worked hard to get Crystal Lakes up and running. In the last 2 months, the plans have been approved, electricity has been installed and connected, all road work and entrances have been completed. We are NOW ready to sell. We need families!

Initially, homes were to be built and sold by the developer. Now, lots are being sold to individuals, builders and investors and all plans must be approved. Five custom homes have been built, all gorgeous, from 1500+ LA to 3200+ LA. The home and lot prices have been reduced and we are ready to go. We are ready to sell lots to anyone that wants a home in what is going to be the most sought after neighborhood in Livingston parish, and prices will be low until the first of the year.

Now we'll be able to say...Crystal Lakes, what a great neighborhood!

1st Time Home Buyer Tax Credit - Question 3: Can I Get Government Assistance to Buy My Home and Still Take the Credit?

Ann Dail, Broker, ePRO, SRS, B.A.Chem, : Real Estate Agent in Baton Rouge, LA

Livingston Parish LouisianaIf you are thinking about buying a home in Livingston Parish and are a first time homebuyer, there's some good news from the Economic Recoery bill receintly passed.

Two of the programs available to assist in purchasing a home are the rural development program (a federeal program) and Louisiana bond assistance. The rural development loan eliminates mortgage interest in yur monthly with a fee financed into the loan and gives a lower interest rate. The Louisiana LHFA bond can provide from 4% to 9% of the mortgage loan amount to be paid at closing to cover part of the down payment, closing costs, and prepaid items. There are income limits and home cost limits. And the program interest rates vary depending on which type of loan for which you quality. The HOME program gives a minimum of 4.5% and a lower interest rate. The assisted program gives 4% and a slightly higher interest rate. This program allows slightly lower credit scores than the present FHA lowiest limit of 620.

And even better news; you can use these programs and still get the $8000 1st time homebuyer tax credit if you close on an home BEFORE November 2009.

1st Time Home Buyer Tax Credit - Question 2: Do I Have to Wail Until next year to Get It?

Ann Dail, Broker, ePRO, SRS, B.A.Chem, : Real Estate Agent in Baton Rouge, LA

1st Time Homebuyer Tax Credit 2009One of the great things about the new 1st Time Homebuyer tax credit is that it can be claimed as soon as you close on your home.

If you have already filed can file an amended 2008 tax return with a 1040X form. This can be done even if a home was purchased early in 2009 and the original tax return claimed the $7,500 credit from last year.

Specifically home buyers use IRS Form 5405 to determine their tax credit amount, and then claim this amount on Line 69 of their 1040 income tax return. You will want to be sure that you qualify under the limits of the 1st Time Homebuyer tests.
