*The average time-frame from when you find a property until it closes is 30-45 days.
*The tax credit is for first time home buyers only.  If you haven’t owned a home in the last three years, you are a first time home buyer.
*The tax credit does note have to be repaid.
*Single tax taxpayers with income up to $75,000 and married couples with incomes up to $150,000 qualify for the full tax credit.
