For you who are looking to purchase a new home, there can be no other better time to do it than this time. This is because for both first time and existing home buyers, the tax credit has been expanded and extended until April 2010. With this, first time buyers are given a federal tax credit of 10 percent of the total purchase price or up to $8,000. On the other hand, the existing homeowner can enjoy the same percentage of tax credit but only up to $6,000. More than this, there are a lot of other reasons on why today is the best time to purchase a home. One of these reasons is that there are a lot of foreclosures as well as short sales in the market these days. This gives you a lot of affordable and low mortgage home selections. However, when you are not really in need of a home at the current moment, you can always postpone your plans of buying a home. Since the value of a home does not rise all the time, nothing will be a problem for you. So now, the bottom line here is if your needs tell you that you must own a home these days, go ahead with that idea. As long as your finances can meet up the demands of purchasing a home, you will not encounter any problem by any chance.
