Read my blog to get the details and see if you are eligible for the '$8,000 Tax Credit for First Time Homebuyers' and for related information go to www.youtube.com/watch?v=suiAfys53aU. Finally, it is a Buyer's Market! List prices are dramatically lower than in the peak of 2006. Prices in the residential market are at around 2003/2004 levels, and there are deals out there! Serious sellers are abandoning the optimistic prices they held during the first half of the new millennium for more realistic prices. In addition, serious sellers are putting their homes in tip-top shape, knowing the competition is stiff. I don't believe we will see any upward price movement until the short sales and foreclosures are cleared, though I must add that housing inventory is finally beginning to decline in Florida, thus signaling a tipping point where prices will no longer be going down. Interest rates on home mortgages are on the decline. And cash buyers are taking advantage of extreemely good values, making their offers more attractive to sellers who do not want to risk a delay in closing for questionable-credit buyers.
