If you haven’t already heard, the 2009 $8,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers has been extended beyond its original deadline of November 30, 2009 to June 30, 2010. This new extension now also applies to current home owners seeking to purchase a more expensive home. Furthermore, the incentive to buy a home has been expanded to a wider range of tax payers including people who have previously owned, or even currently own, a home.
