Accent Homes in Sophies South is the Perfect Match for First-Time Homebuyers

without comments

We’ve been getting a lot of action in the neighborhood of Sophies South in Andover these days. Here at Accent Homes, we firmly believe it’s because of our fabulous designs. In truth, it’s probably a combination of that and the fact that we’re on the home stretch of the $8,000 Federal Housing Tax Credit for first-time homebuyers.

That could explain why we have sold two homes there prior to being completed. And we met with another couple just yesterday about a home under construction in the same neighborhood. I think the housing market is beginning to heat up.

If you’re not familiar with the federal stimulus tax credit, here’s how it works…

A tax credit of up to $8,000 is available for first-time home buyers purchasing before April 30, 2010. In cases where a binding sales contract is signed by April 30, 2010, a home purchase completed by June 30, 2010 will qualify.

But what about repeat homebuyers? Accent Homes has properties that appeal to second- and third-time homeowners, too. Although the cap is somewhat less, it may be just what you need to help you make your final decision — especially if you don’t have a home to sell.

A tax credit of up to $6,500 is available for repeat home buyers who have owned a home for five consecutive years out of the prior eight years. The repeat homebuyer tax credit applies to houses sold before April 30, 2010. In cases where a binding sales contract is signed by April 30, 2010, a home purchase completed by June 30, 2010 will qualify.

If you’re thinking about making a move, we’d be happy to tell you more. Visit Accent Homes website>>

Special Note: You know the third buyer mentioned at the beginning of this article? They signed a purchase agreement, too!
