First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit is Running Out of Time

November 30, 2009 seems far enough away. It’s after Thanksgiving, and it’s currently 95 degrees out. Who’s counting?

Towson First Time Homebuyers should be, that’s who!

If you want to take advantage of the First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit, you must get MOVING NOW!

It can take some time to find a house. If we start looking tomorrow, it could take you 30 days to find the perfect place, couldn’t it? Today is August 24. 30 days brings us to September 24. If you are using an FHA mortgage, banks are stating 45-60 days to ensure issues that may arise are covered/taken care of. That brings you to yes, November 24th. What is November 24th? The Tuesday before Thanksgiving. Think of all of the First Time Homebuyers across the US trying to take advantage of this credit. All under the same guidelines, deadlines, etc. How well do you think a closing may go on November 24th????

Keep in mind, if you settle December 1, you will NOT receive the tax credit benefit, even if the delayed closing is NOT YOUR FAULT. You would still not be eligible.

So what does this mean?

Contact me today to GET MOVING and get $8,000 back from the government on your taxes next year. WHAT A GIFT!

Towson Realtor — My interview on Castle Title TV

David Kramer, President and General Counsel of Castle Title, LLC interviewed me about Social Media and my successes from this medium for business.

“I sat down with Marney Kirk (aka @realtormarney on Twitter) who, in my opinion, is leading the charge of real estate agents that are using social media to build brand equity for themselves and promote their business…Marney and I discuss some of the ways that she and other forward thinking real estate professionals are capitalizing on various social media platforms by building relationships that are ultimately converting into closed deals.”

I thank David for this opportunity, and look forward to hearing from you who view about how social media networking has helped me to continue to grow my Towson real estate business.
