Folks, this is serious.
If you qualify for the up to $8000 tax credit for first time home buyers (including buyers not owning a home in the last 3 years), you’ve just about run out of the time needed to buy a resale home and there’s no way you’re going to have a new home constructed before the 30 November deadline.
In San Antonio, from start to finish, it takes the average first time home buyer about 8 weeks to do everything necessary to buy a home. There are only about 9 weeks left before 30 November, however, the Thanksgiving holiday is projected to rule out the last week in November as a closing week for anyone who hasn’t completed a home purchase contract by now. So, that leaves only 8 weeks to go for a process that usually takes 8 weeks.
Here’s the message. If you’re eligible, you’re going to lose your chance for the up to $8,000 federal tax credit if you don’t start seriously looking for a home right away.
You need to make your home search as efficient as possible. Call a lender and get mortgage loan prequalified. Seek out an experienced realty buyers agent to lead you through the process. Have your agent set up an automated MLS search that automatically E-mails you the freshest listings matching your needs. If a listing looks interested, don’t wait. Ask your agent to set up a viewing for you right away.

68 Days Left For San Antonio Home Buyer $8000 Federal Tax Credit
If you’re a first time home buyer or haven’t owned a home in the last 3 years, you qualify for the up to $8000 Federal tax credit program; but, unless the program is extended by Congress, you must close on your purchase by November 30, 2009, to reap the benefit.
It’s September 23. That leaves only 68 days to find a home, negotiate the purchase, arrange funding, and close on the sale; but, keep in mind that many title companies and lender offices will be closed for the long Thanksgiving holiday weekend. That leaves only 63 days to do all that’s necessary to purchase a resale home. And, if you hope to have a home built for you, there’s no chance to complete construction before the 30 November tax credit deadline.
Don’t risk your tax credit by waiting until the last minute to launch your home search. Do it now!

Houses Under $200,000 Are Selling Fast In San Antonio
Posted by Randy Kelley on September 12, 2009

Houses Under $200K Are Selling Fast In San Antonio
What’s hot out there depends on who you ask. If it’s the meteorologist, it’s every day of the week this entire summer and probably most of the fall.
If you ask the local real estate market, you’ll find that it’s a certain segment of homes that is selling more than others.
And that hot homes category seems to be the one under $200,000. In fact, homes below $200,000 have made up 71 percent of the sales so far in 2009, according to the San Antonio Board of Realtors.
“The price range that seems to be moving is the first-time home buyer market due to the tax credit for these buyers,” said Janet Heydenreich, a real estate agent with the Phyllis Browning Co. “I think we will continue to see strong interest in that price range as the deadline approaches.”
First-time home buyers are eligible to receive an $8,000 tax credit if they qualify and purchase a home before Dec. 1.
The tax credit has created some pressure on the lower end of the market, because that’s what is most affordable to those first-time buyers who may just be starting out in their careers.
So, watch out for potential price wars.
“It is possible that bidding wars may appear as the deadline comes closer,” Heydenreich said.
If you’re thinking about selling your below-$200,000 home, now might be a good time, as the construction of new homes in this price range has slowed and the demand has increased.
“Because of the tax credit, there is a shortage of good homes under $250,000,” said Tyler Willmann, a real estate agent with Keller Williams Realty.
And he knows from recent experience. “I actually got into a bidding war,” he said. “We started at $180,000 and went up to $200,000 and lost. We could not find anything in the $200,000 range that was in move-in shape.”
He said many of the best homes below $200,000 can sell in a matter of days.
And he said it will only get worse because there will be more price pressure closer to the tax credit deadline.
“I have three clients that will be ready in September to purchase. I just hope they can find something,” Willmann said. “If they have a nice home under $250,000, put it on the market.”
But even homes in that “hot” price range need to be in tip-top shape, and you should look at how many homes are for sale in your neighborhood, said DeniseGraves, a real estate agent with the Graves Group.
If the home needs some work, take care of that first. And if there are a dozen homes for sale near you, you might be better off waiting until a few of those sell.
Although interest definitely is greater for affordable homes, on the high end of the spectrum, where homes above $750,000 have made up just 1 percent of the market this year, there does seem to be some interest from those who can afford it, and who are gutsy enough to make such a big investment.
“The higher-end market is moving, but very slowly,”Heydenreich said. “We do have buyers in that price range, but they are being very cautious about their purchases and are not going to pay above market value for a home.”
She said the motivation for people buying in the higher-end price range above $750,000 comes from historically low and competitive interest rates.
There also seems to be some high-end interest because of an abundant inventory.
“Buyers feel like they can negotiate and get a great value in a luxury home,” said Graves.
With a relatively large amount of high-end homes, buyers feel each should have something unique about it, Graves said.
But whether buyers are looking for the most affordable home or the most high-end, whether a home sells boils down to how well a home is priced.
“We are seeing the market adjust itself to be more competitive. Buyers are reacting to correctly priced homes in show-ready condition, and we aren’t seeing low offers on those properties,” Graves said.

$8000 Federal Tax Credit Caution For San Antonio Buyers
If you hoping to take advantage of the up to $8000 Federal tax credit for first time homebuyers, here's a cautionary note from Melissa Kulikiff, Senior Loan Officer, Supreme Lending, San Antonio. Melissa says:
"The tax credit truly expires on November 30, 2009....This is the Monday after Thanksgiving.
Most title companies will be closed Thursday and Friday for the holiday.
Please keep this in mind if you are a first time home buyer hoping to take advantage of the tax credit. A 1-day delay could cost you $8,000.
Does this note of caution seem premature? I don't think so."
If you are a first time home buyer scheduled to close on your home purchase at the end of November, please heed Melissa's cautionary advice. Avoid the chance of losing your tax credit. Check with your Realtor(R), lender, and title company to make sure your closing won't be delayed past midnight on 30 November.
Melissa is available to consult with buyers needing information about the the $8000 tax credit, specifically, and mortgage loan issues, generally. You can contact her at Supreme Lending, San Antonio, Main Line: (210) 807-6850: Direct Line: (210) 807-6851; Cell: (210) 849-9030.
