Housing Complex: News and Fluff on D.C. Real Estate

The Extended, Extended Homebuyer Tax Credit…

Although the president passed the extended homebuyer tax credit back on Nov. 6, the Internal Revenue Service just sent out a press release yesterday with all the details…

Which actually reminded me of something that’s rarely mentioned inĀ stories about the credit, a huge driving force in today’s housing market:

“Members of the Armed Forces and certain federal employees serving outside the U.S. have an extra year to buy a principal residence in the U.S. and still qualify for the credit. An eligible taxpayer must buy or enter into a binding contract to buy a home by April 30, 2011, and settle on the purchase by June 30, 2011.”
