Fort Bragg NC Relocations may be able to benefit from an extension of the $8000 first time homebuyers tax credit!
We work with many veterans and military families through the "Stanton Homes for Heroes" program and the Veterans History Project - this is great news. Hopefully the Senate will pass as well.
Military families often have to put their home buying plans on hold as they are deployed or transfered. Good to see the House of Representatives working to support them!
Yesterday the House of Representatives unanimously voted to extend the $8,000 first-time home buyer tax credit to active military personnel, foreign service and intelligence officers. HR 3590 extends the existing tax credit to this group until November 30th, 2010. The bill now goes to the Senate, and is expected to pass with the same ease.
The bill was introduced by Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY) because it was thought that military personel serving oversees this year did not have the same opportunity to take advantage of the tax credit. If the original qualifications are met, the extension applies to military personnel who spent at least 90 days of the current calendar year oversees. It also does not require borrowers to payback the tax credit if they are deployed after receiving it. The current tax credit requires borrowers payback the tax credit if they do not occupy the home within three years of receiving the tax credit.
No word yet on whether the $8,000 tax credit will be extended for all eligible borrowers.
