The Tax Credit has been extended and expanded, check out the new benefits:

        The new tax credits will be available from December 1, 2009 to April 30, 2010.

        The tax credit will sunset on April 30, 2010, but as long as you have a binding contract by that date, you will still qualify to complete the transaction within 60 days.

        Home sellers turned buyers are eligible, as long as the home they’re leaving has been used as their principal residence for 5 years or more.

        Income limits for both first-time home buyers and home sellers turned buyers would be $125,000 for individuals and $225,000 for married couples.

        For purchases made in 2010, taxpayers can claim the tax credit on their 2009 income tax return.

        Home buyers would not have to repay the credit, provided the home remains their principal residence for 36 months after the purchase date.

Give Don Rogers a call today at 315-954-6775 and let’s begin moving toward your new home.

Hello? Did you just say HELLO?

Don Rogers REALTOR®, GRI  O'Fallon MO & St Charles County MO homes: Real Estate Agent in O Fallon, MO

Hello? Did you just say HELLO?

Yesterday I was scheduling some property to show. As I was going through the list I come to one homeReally, Did I just hear you say HELLO? that I had to call somewhere other than the office or a showing service. It happened to be the listing agents' home phone number. Now let me say, I am not opposed to calling your home, I am not against calling you at the gym while you are working out, shucks I am not even against calling you on the golf course or at a watering hole. All I ask is a couple of common courtesies like:

  1. Answering the phone or
  2. Call me back when I leave a message and
  3. Identify yourself and the company you work for.

Could it be that your listing has been on the market for over a year now simply because you are not returning your scheduling calls? If you are a part-time agent and you have your spouse or significant other fielding your calls remind them of the importance of answering the phone correctly as well as returning calls.

Hello is nice if you know who it is on the other end of the line but when you don't know the caller it would be nice to identify yourself and the company you work for.

In not returning my call, and yes I did leave my return number two times in my message, I could've chosen to just forget about your listing and not show it.

Remember, you are in business for yourself and businesses do not answer the phone with HELLO...
