First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit Extended

You may have heard the exciting news that the First Time Homebuyer $8,000 Tax Credit has been extended.  This will prove to be great news for thousands of Knox County, Ohio homebuyers and many existing homeowners who qualify for this exceptional incentive.  I asked national real estate expert David Knox to help me explain the benefits of this extended and revised tax credit.  In order for you to take advantage of this incentive you must meet two different deadlines.  You must place a home under contract by April 30, 2010 and must close by June 2010.
