Take advantage of the homebuyer tax credit!
We told you about the extension of the homebuyer tax credit as soon as it was extended and expanded back in November. Since then we’ve received a lot of questions from folks looking to buy a home in the Charlottesville area about the homebuyer tax credit and how they might be able to take advantage of it.
We thought it might be a good idea to answer some of the most common questions about the homebuyer tax credit right here, so that anyone interested in it will have a better understanding of how it works. As always, if you have additional questions about the tax credit that might not have been answered in this post, please feel free to contact us, and we’ll be happy to help you.
How much is the first-time homebuyer tax credit worth?
The first-time homebuyer tax credit is $8000. If you are a married couple who files your taxes separately, the tax credit is $4000 each.
Who is considered a “first-time homebuyer?”
In order to be eligible to receive the first-time homebuyer tax credit, you must not have had an interest in a principle residence for 3 years prior to your current purchase.
How much is the tax credit worth for current homeowners?
Current homeowners may receive a $6500 tax credit. If you are a married couple who files your taxes separately, the tax credit is $3250 each.
<Who is considered a “current homeowner?”
In order to qualify as a current homeowner, you must have used the home being sold as a principle residence consecutively for 5 of the previous 8 years.
When does the credit expire?
The credit expires for both first-time homebuyers and current homeowners on April 30th, 2010. In order to take advantage of the credit, you must have a binding contract by midnight on April 30th, and the home must close by July 1, 2010.
Are their limits to eligibility?
Yes. The income limits for eligibility are $125,000 annual income for single persons, and $225,000 annual income for married couples. There is also a limit of $800,000 for the home being purchased.
Is there paperwork
As with any government program, there is some paperwork to be done in order to receive the credit. The IRS has special forms for your purchase, which you can get from your closing attorney or accountant. You will also need to attach to your tax return documentation of the purchase, which will at least include the signed HUD-1 statement from your closing.
Will the government send me a check?
Maybe. When you apply for the credit, it will be applied to your tax bill. That means that if you owe less taxes then the amount of your credit, you will receive a check from the IRS. If the amount of the taxes you owe is more than the credit, it will simply reduce your total tax burden. Some people who took advantage of the tax credit early filed amended 2008 returns, and were able to receive a check, since they had already paid their 2008 taxes.
Are their homes available that will work for me?
Of course! We’ve worked with a number of buyers this year who have taken advantage of the tax credit. There are plenty of homes for sale in Lake Monticello, Charlottesville, and Albemarle that are perfect for people who want to take advantage of the tax credit. We can help guide you through the process every step of the way. If you are interested in taking advantage of the tax credit, just let us know, and we’ll be happy to help you!

Walmart Zion X Roads Grand Opening
Today was a very big day for residents of the Charlottesville Area, especially for those living in Fluvanna, Lake Monticello, and Louisa.
Today was the grand opening of the new Walmart Supercenter at Zion Crossroads. As we told you earlier this week, the Walmart has been a long time coming. Today that time finally came.
There were over 100 people in attendance on a rainy morning, and the store was packed with people all day long.
The event included a full color guard from Fork Union Military Academy, and a performance by the Louisa County High School cheerleaders. We have video of the festivities and the ribbon-cutting:

New Walmart opening in Charlottesville Area November 11th

The new walmart in Zion X Roads as seen in the Walmart iPhone App
It has been a long time coming, but on Wednesday, November 11th, the new Super Walmart will be opening at Zion Crossroads. Residents of the Charlottesville area have been without a Super Walmart as they have watched new stores open in nearby Wayesboro and Richmond. Now, Charlottesville area residents will be able to enjoy one of the newest Walmart designs in the entire country.
The new Supercenter in Zion X Roads features a brand-new design that is part of Walmart’s “Project Impact.” These newer stores are designed to be more inviting, brighter, and have a more customer-friendly layout, among other things.
The new store will certainly have a major impact of residents in Fluvanna, Lake Monticello, and Louisa. Residents in these areas have had to travel to Charlottesville, Waynesboro or Richmond, previously. Now, one of the largest and newest Walmarts in their country will be right in their own backyard.
As the area has grown, the demand for a large grocery store has increased, but no grocery chain has stepped up to fill that void. Most grocery stores in communities outside Charlottesville have been Food Lions. Those stores are sure to be impacted by the increased selection and discount pricing that a Walmart Supercenter can provide.
The Walmart at Zion X Roads is scheduled to open at 7:30am on Wednesday. We’ll be there to cover the opening and provide pictures and videos from the store to give you an idea of what it is like. Stay tuned. . .
