I feel Good...(da-da-da-da dant da....)

November 5th, 2009 5:18 PM

Well, well...nothing like speculation to throw a wrench into things...but as I type this the only remaining hurdle on extending the Home Buyer Credit is if our Prez can't remember how to use a fountain pen...but as little credit as I give 'em, I think signing his name should be a 'gimme'.

.... AND (note intentional use of bold,underlined, capital letters to keep your attention from drifting...) the credit being offered to move up buyers.....a few rules to follow so read with me here...:

The legislation that was recently cleared makes move-up buyers as well as first-time buyers eligible for a credit. The $8,000 maximum first-timer credit will continue and will now be available to couples with income up to $225,000, a nearly $55,000 increase above the level in existing law. A new $6,500 maximum credit would also be available to move-up homeowners who have lived in their current residence for five of the prior eight years.

YES!!!...sing it James! "I feel Good"....

Lets roll right into this months edition of :
