Housing Tax Credits 2008/2009/2010
Posted in Housing Tax Credits on Mar 3rd, 2016
You can claim the credit if you buy a home after November 6, 2009, sign a binding sales contract before May 1, 2010, and close before July 1, 2010. Your new home does not have to cost more than your previous home. You do not have to sell your previous home to be eligible for the tax credit, but you must live in your new home as your principal residence for at least three years.
