COLDWELL BANKER BUYER BONUS PROGRAM

The Coldwell Banker Buyer Bonus Event is a national sales promotion that begins on May 1st and lasts through July 31st, 2010. Sellers participating in the promotion are giving 3% of the accepted offer price up to $8,000 credit at closing back to homebuyers who sign an offer before the July 31st deadline.

Open to all home buyers - No income limitations - No property eligibility requirements
The home buyer tax credit has come and gone. Fortunately, the door is now open to something even better - the Coldwell Banker Buyer Bonus Event!

If you have questions about the Coldwell Banker Buyer Bonus Event,

*Any pricing decision is in the seller's sole discretion and is subject to negotiation between the buyer and seller. No portion of a real estate broker's or real estate sales agent's commission is offered as part of the credit incentive. Buyers are encouraged to contact their lender to ensure that participation will not adversely affect their financing as well as an attorney or tax professional regarding any legal or tax implications. Certain sellers may elect to extend the Buyer Bonus beyond the promotional period.

HOMEBUYER TAX CREDIT HAS BEEN EXTENDED UNTIL APRIL 30, 2010

As part of its plan to stimulate the U.S. housing market and address the economic challenges facing our nation, Congress has passed new legislation that:

Extends the First-Time Home Buyer Tax Credit of up to $8,000 to first-time home buyers until April 30, 2010.

Expands the credit to grant up to $6,500 credit to current home owners purchasing a new or existing home between November 7, 2009 and April 30, 2010.

Here is more information about how the Extended Home Buyer Tax Credit can help prospective home buyers become part of the American dream.

Who Qualifies for the Extended Credit?
First-time home buyers who purchase homes between November 7, 2009 and April 30, 2010.

Current home owners purchasing a home between November 7, 2009 and April 30, 2010, who have used the home being sold or vacated as a principal residence for five consecutive years within the last eight.

To qualify as a "first-time home buyer" the purchaser or his/her spouse may not have owned a residence during the three years prior to the purchase.

Which Properties Are Eligible?
The Extended Home Buyer Tax Credit may be applied to primary residences, including: single-family homes, condos, townhomes, and co-ops.

How Much Is Available?
The maximum allowable credit for first-time home buyers is $8,000.
The maximum allowable credit for current homeowners is $6,500.

How is a Buyer's Credit Amount Determined?
Each home buyer’s tax credit is determined by tow additional factors:
The price of the home.
The buyer's income.

Price

Under the Extended Home Buyer Tax Credit, credit may only be awarded on homes purchased for $800,000 or less.

Buyer Income

Under the Extended Home Buyer Tax Credit, which is effective on November 7, 2009, single buyers with incomes up to $125,000 and married couples with incomes up to $225,000-may receive the maximum tax credit.

If the Buyer(s)’ Income Exceeds These Limits, Can He/She Still Get a Credit?
Yes, some buyers may still be eligible for the credit.

The credit decreases for buyers who earn between $125,000 and $145,000 for single buyers and between $225,000 and $245,000 for home buyers filing jointly. The amount of the tax credit decreases as his/her income approaches the maximum limit.

Home buyers earning more than the maximum qualifying income-over $145,000 for singles and over $245,000 for couples are not eligible for the credit.

Can a Buyer Still Qualify If He/She Closes After April 30, 2010?
Under the Extended Home Buyer Tax Credit, as long as a written binding contract to purchase is in effect on April 30, 2010, the purchaser will have until July 1, 2010 to close.

Will the Tax Credit Need to Be Repaid?
No. The buyer does not need to repay the tax credit, if he/she occupies the home for three years or more. However, if the property is sold during this three-year period, the full amount credit will be recouped on the sale.

HOMEBUYERS TAX CREDIT OVERVIEW

The Homebuyer Tax Credit portion of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 provides an $8,000 tax credit to first time home buyers (or buyers who have not owned a private residence in the past three years) who purchase a principal residence on or after January 1, 2009 and on or before November 30, 2009.

The credit does not require repayment and will be claimed on a tax return to reduce the purchaser's income tax liability. If any credit amount remains unused, then the unused amount will be refunded as a check to the purchaser.

What are the important points to know?
• The Tax credit has been raised from $7,500 to $8,000 or 10% of purchase price (whichever is less)
• The credit does not require repayment
• First time home buyers or buyers who have not owned a home in the last 3 years
• To qualify, a single person must make less than $75,000 a year in income
• Joint ownership must make less than $150,000 a year in income to qualify
• Qualified buyers must purchase home on or after January 1, 2009 and no later than November 30, 2009
• The property must be the primary residence
• Purchaser must remain in home for 3 years or the credit will be recaptured at the sale of home.

Are there restrictions for the home I want to purchase?
• The primary residence can be a condo, single family detached, co-op, townhouse or something similar
• The home must be located in the United States.
• Vacation homes and rental properties are not eligible.
• For new construction, the "purchase date" is the date you occupy the home. So the move in date must be beforeDecember 1, 2009.

Who is not eligible for the credit?
• If your income exceeds the phase-out range. This means joint filers with Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI) of $170,000 and above and other taxpayers with MAGI of $95,000 and above.
• You may not buy your home from a close relative. This includes your spouse, parent, grandparent, child or grandchild.
• Vacation homes and rental properties are not eligible
• If you stop using your home as your main home.
• If you sell your home before the end of three years.
• If you are a nonresident alien you are not eligible

Recapture 3 Year Residency
• If the home is sold prior to three years of ownership, the tax credit must be repaid at closing.
This provision is designed to prevent flipping homes in order to get the credit.

Other Provisions
• Purchasers who utilize state/local revenue bond financing can now use the credit.
• Purchasers who bought before January 1, 2009 and received the previous $7,500 tax credit are still subject to theterms of that repayable credit.

When Can I Claim the Credit?
• It can be claimed on your 2008 Tax Return (to be filed by April 15, 2009), an amended 2008 Tax Return, or your 2009 Tax Return.
