New information on the first time home buyer tax credit, now at $8,000 and you don't have to pay it back!
New information that first time home buyers should know like how to pick a realtor and what kinds of questions you should ask them.
We are working with a realtor that was suggested to us by a friend. She lives in the area where we are looking and has been able to point out important things about houses that we didn't even think of like the roof, ceilings, windows and furnace. Just make sure you are comfortable with your realtor.
Home Update
We are headed out again this Friday with our realtor to check out the dream house and some others that she has found.
We also went to another bank to get a second opinion on interest rates and possible closing costs. I found that different banks name their fees different names and so it has been hard to compare the two estimates we have got. But basically we are looking at at least $4,000 up front. Which means we have got to start saving NOW!
