Tucson Kent's World: December 2009

Life & Real Estate In The Tucson Market

Give Yourself A Present in 2010 - Tucson Weather & Incentive To Buy A Home

Living through a Tucson Winter can be pretty delightful - especially when you are getting a fat check from Uncle Sam for buying a home! 

 

 

Sure - folks have probably already heard about the extended tax credit for homebuyers...but lets get one thing very clear:  it isn't just for first time homebuyers anymore.  With Tucson's home prices making the real estate market virtually "ON SALE" - and getting up to $8000, first time homebuyers can really give themselves a nice present.

Current homeowners looking to upsize or downsize can get up to $6500...and you don't have to sell your current home (but you do have to move into the new purchase).  Perhaps that's the way to give yourself an investment property and the home you want at the same time?!?

Anyhow, for details, give me a call or shoot me an email.  Lets enjoy a dip in the pool or a round of golf while discussing your needs - yes, even in winter.

Merry Christmas to everyone!
