The eligibility deadline for the $8000 first-time homebuyer tax credit is DECEMBER 1ST not DECEMBER 31ST!! I don’t know why they didn’t just make it the end of the year, but I have a feeling this is going to trip a lot of people up.

To take advantage of this great opportunity, you must be a first-time homebuyer and purchase a primary residence before December 1st!

For more information about this tax credit, visit http://www.federalhousingtaxcredit.com/2009/index.html.

We’ve also created a handy dandy countdown clock to keep tabs on the time running out (on the side bar to the right).

If you are looking to purchase a home for the first time, you only have about 3 more months to take advantage of this program. Don’t miss out!
