Did you know 1.4 million people have used the tax credit & 355,000 people wouldn't have purchased without the tax credit as an incentive!

The California Assoication of Reatltors President stated, "This tax credit is arguably the most successful strategy employed by the goverment to stimulate the housing market."

Right now the First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit goes to November 30th, 2009. Hopefully this will be extended!
