First Time Buyer’s Tax Credit as Down Payment
It was announced last week that the $8,000 tax credit being offered to first time homebuyers can now be used as down payment instead of waiting until you file your taxes next year to collect.
On May 12th, Shaun Donovan, secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development announced at the National Association of Realtor’s (NAR) Real Estate Summit that the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) will allow home buyer’s to use their $8,000 tax credit as down payment.
For many, this is great news! If you are a first time home buyer qualified to receive the tax credit, you will now be able to use this tax credit as down payment money with FHA insured mortgages. If you are purchasing a home up to $228,500, your entire down payment amount can essentially be paid for under this new plan.
Take a look at the video interview with tax economist Robert Dietz, Ph. D., provided by the National Association of Home Builders.
Depending on how you structure your home purchase, qualified buyers will actually be able to utilize 100% financing again.
100% financing had been done away with after many homeowners that had defaulted on their mortgages, were unable to sell as they had no equity available to pay off their closing costs and had to ultimately settle for a short sale, foreclosure or bankruptcy.
Under the new plan, FHA is allowing approved lenders to make a separate bridge loan that will be paid off when the home buyer files their taxes in 2010. This is where the 100% financing mortgage structures of the past years differ. Once the tax credit has paid off the bridge loan, the home will still have equity.
This effort by the United States HUD Department to spur home sales will open doors for many home buyers that are qualified to purchase but do not have the funds available for down payment and closing costs.
