Have you heard about the real estate stimulus  made available by the government?  This is considered to be the best time to buy a home, and if you are  already buying one the credit is still at least $6500, so you have a  vested interest in this year's tax credits.  It looks as if 1st time  buyers are going to get a good deal with the way the tax credits are  being supplied.  The deal on a new home loan must be handled by April  2010 and the loan closed on by June 2010.  This lets the government have  the availability to handled this set of tax credits in the same year  efficiently.   
I'm sure there are other benefits for families, who are investing in a  new home, but there are other means of information that I'm not aware of  at the present.  This video gives you the basic's  of the government  established tax credits for first time owners.  They also give the  "moving on up" incentive to homeowner's whose homes are under worth  under $800,000.  I've never been able to afford a home that expensive,  and so I suppose I wouldn't be in that group.  This effort by the  government to establish a more lucrative economy, is something that can  work, but must be implemented in order to gain the necessary strength  our economy needs.
