New $15,000 Home Buyers Credit?
Just when the end of of the $8,000 home buyer’s credit was about to expire, a new government giveaway has been proposed. It seems the government’s most successful and popular plans are cash give-a-ways! So, it’s only logical for the government to not only double the amount of the give-a-way, but to loosen the requirements as well! This is sure to be another ‘successful’ big government program.
With all the Government cash give-a-ways, it should come as no surprise that there is now legislation in both the Senate and the House that would expand the current $8,000 tax credit.
Many Homeowners Put Home Remodeling Plans on Hold
Economic uncertainty is prompting some homeowners to put their home remodeling plans on hold, according to a study by online publisher Remodelormove.com. Homeowners who have declining home equity or who are living in lower-value homes are postponing remodeling projects, while those with more financial resources are moving ahead with them.
Although 84 percent of homeowners said the nation’s economic woes are affecting their remodeling plans, 81 percent said they plan to go ahead with the upgrades. Nearly two-thirds (65 percent) expect to do some of the work themselves in an effort to keep costs down. San Diego events
