Buyer Tax Credit Expanding?
Filed in Mortgage, News on Jun 13th, 2009.
Legislation introduced in Congress Wednesday June 10th would expand the tax credit now limited to first-time homebuyers to any purchaser of a home and increase the maximum available to $15,000.
The tax credit passed earlier this year is limited to $8,000 and has income caps.
U.S. Sen. Johnny Isakson, a Georgia Republican, introduced the legislation, and Senate Banking Committee Chair Christopher Dodd, a Connecticut Democrat, quickly stepped up to co-sponsor.
The National Association of REALTORS® and the National Association of Home Builders have said they would like to see the tax credit improved.
