With only a few weeks left to find a home and start your loan process, many first time home buyers will miss out on the $8000 Tax Credit for First Tim Home Buyers. We have tried to caution our clients not to wait until the 1st of November to buy a house because, with the Thanksgiving Holidays, you will more than likely not be able to make the November 30th closing date.
