$8000 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit in San Diego

March 4th, 2009

San Diego Real Estate Blog

San Diego - First Time Home Buyers Only – 8000 Dollars !

The $787,000,000,000 stimulus bill signed into law has some benefits for first time home buyers. In the bill signed by Obama there is an $8000 first time home 8000 Dollar First Time Home Buyer Tax Incentivebuyer tax credit. This $8000 amount was sized down from $15000 in the original version of the stimulus package. Here in San Diego County California and rich foreclosure environments like Chula Vista in South County San Diego welcomes this first time home buyer $8,000 tax credit incentive.

Some of the details are that the home purchased must be the first time home buyers principal residence. There is a cap of $8,000 if the purchase price is higher than $800,000. A first time home buyer in San Diego or anywhere in the U.S. would be someone who has not owned a principal residence for 3 years. This will only apply to home buyers buying in 2009 so if you’re sitting on the fence of San Diego home buyers this could be the thing that gets you down off the fence and back in the market.

There are also income limits that state single buyers need a modified adjusted gross income of $75,000 or less to qualify for full credit and $150,000 for married couples. If buyers make more income than the amounts stated they could be eligible for reduced credits. Make sure you talk to your accountant about this. The $8000 tax credit is refundable. Buyers will have to own the home for at least 3 years if they want to capitalize fully on the tax incentive. The tax credit will have to be returned to the government if they sell early. There are situations that will be exceptions to this rule.

Make sure you contact professional tax consultants for full factual information on this $8,000 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit.

February 17th, 2009

San Diego Real Estate BlogList of San Diego Foreclosures

Do you want a list of San Diego Foreclosures? If so we can help you with that. There are thousands of foreclosures in San Diego County and the list changes every day. We thought about putting a daily San Diego foreclosure list together but then thought why not just give the San Diego foreclosure search tools to the buyers. That way a buyer looking for a foreclosure in San Diego or even the whole state of California can search foreclosures by zip code, price, size and any other possible search criteria.

This service costs us money but we feel that if a client wants to search for a foreclosure, why not give them the tools real estate experts use. Buyers then know how serious we are about helping them find a San Diego foreclosure by letting them use our expensive foreclosure analyzer tools for free. A list of foreclosures in San Diego is ineffective compared to how these tools can help you locate the perfect San Diego foreclosure.

Good News for San Diego Home Buyers in 2009

February 4th, 2009

San Diego Real Estate BlogSan Diego Real Estate 2009 Pending Home Sales

In 2009 San Diego Home Buyers are getting on board with the program. According to the National Association of Realtors many home buyers are out buying homes. Pending home sales has increased which is a great sign for the U.S. Real Estate Market. Pending home sales are measured by the Pending Home Sales Index which is a forward looking indicator based on purchase contracts signed in December. The index for December 2008 rose 6.3% over the November 2008 reading and this is 2.1% higher than December 2007. In the west we are seeing a17.5% higher number than the same month last year.

NAR states that the Pending Home Sales Index is a leading indicator for the housing sector, based on pending sales of existing homes. A sale is listed as pending when the contract has been signed but the transaction has not closed, though the sale usually is finalized within one or two months of signing.

NAR – National Association of Realtors stated that the improved affordability conditions such as low interest rates and cheaper homes were a factor to the increase in pending sales. Another great statistic for December 2008 was that the Housing Affordability Index rose to 10.9 %. NAR stated it was the highest on record. This is a very positive trend going into 2009.

Many areas of San Diego and Chula Vista have seen a jump in pending sales in early 2009. I have also been getting many more phone calls and emails from people wanting to buy a home in 2009. If you are ready to buy a home in 2009 please give us a call.

San Diego Had Their Share of 2.3 Million Foreclosure Filings in 2008

January 15th, 2009

San Diego Real Estate Blog

The foreclosure filings rose 81% nationwide in 2008 and 2.3 million homeowners received a foreclosure or auction notice in that year. The 2009 foreclosure filings should be as gloomy or even more gloomy than 2008. This data is from RealtyTrac Inc. and shows the dire reality of how many families are loosing their homes. There was 1 in every 54 households that received either a foreclosure or auction filing. 2009 should bring more bad news in the mail for many homeowners struggling to make their house payments. Many are just throwing up their hands and walking away. The economy now in a recession won’t help matters and with the unemployment rate on a sharp incline it will only fuel this foreclosure pattern.

Homeowners in San Diego have been hit with some of the highest foreclosure rates in the country. The past real estate boom in San Diego is now in complete coloration to theSan Diego Americas Finest City downturn that has San Diegans feeling blue. San Diego has always been known for the great weather and sunshine which is free. This is a bright side to the malaise that has gripped most areas of the country in that San Diego is a great place to live whether you own or rent. It is still truly Americas Finest City ….. it’s just a little more affordable. O.K. a lot more affordable.
