I have been showing a lot of homes to buyers the past couple of weeks in the Allen area. My buyers who were looking for a newer home (newer meaning the home was built in 2000 or newer) and under $175,000.
My buyers were competing against multiple offers 75% of the homes my buyers looked at either went under contract the day we looked at them or there were multiple offers on the homes when we submitted our offer. Allen has become a really strong market right now under $175,000. The first time home buyer tax credit along with the strong schools in Allen have really helped the area out.

Are you a first time home buyer who was hoping to get the lowest mortgage rate possible? Well if you waited for rates to get even lower then I am sorry to tell you that you have missed the low rate boat.
In the last two weeks mortgage rates have increased to right around 5.5% for qualified buyers! I have spoken with several different lenders who are worried that rates could get as high as 7% here in the near future... So if you are one of those buyers still sitting on the sidelines why not jump in now and take advantage of the still historically low interest rates? Plus if you are a first time home buyer you can get up to $8,000 from the government after you purchase a home!
Don't be one of those buyers who will be kicking themselves for not purchasing a home when rates were under 6%! Call me today at 972-468-5499 to begin your home search! I am 100% this year in getting seller's to pay all buyer closing costs!

The Government has extend the tax credit program this year and has actually improved it from 2008. In 2008 the tax credit was $7,500 for first time home buyers and the buyer would have to repay that $7,500 every year in $500 increments for 15 years.
In 2009 the government increased the Tax credit to $8,000 and made it to where you DO NOT have to repay it! That means qualified buyers will get $8,000 from the government after they close on a home.
You must qualify in order to receive this tax credit. The qualifications are:
The law defines "first-time home buyer" as a buyer who has not owned a principal residence during the three-year period prior to the purchase. For married taxpayers, the law tests the homeownership history of both the home buyer and his/her spouse.
For example, if you have not owned a home in the past three years but your spouse has owned a principal residence, neither you nor your spouse qualifies for the first-time home buyer tax credit. However, unmarried joint purchasers may allocate the credit amount to any buyer who qualifies as a first-time buyer, such as may occur if a parent jointly purchases a home with a son or daughter. Ownership of a vacation home or rental property not used as a principal residence does not disqualify a buyer as a first-time home buyer.
How do I claim the tax credit? Do I need to complete a form or application?
Participating in the tax credit program is easy. You claim the tax credit on your federal income tax return. Specifically, home buyers should complete IRS Form 5405 to determine their tax credit amount, and then claim this amount on Line 69 of their 1040 income tax return. No other applications or forms are required, and no pre-approval is necessary. However, you will want to be sure that you qualify for the credit under the income limits and first-time home buyer tests. Note that you cannot claim the credit on Form 5405 for an intended purchase for some future date; it must be a completed purchase.
Please be aware that interest rates are also increasing! If you are a first-time-home-buyer and you would like to take advantage of the $8,000 Tax Credit and the low interest rates I suggest contacting Nick Good of Keller Williams Realty IMMEDIATELY! You can reach Nick by email at NickGood@kw.com or directly at 972-468-5499.
