Get Your First Time Home Buyer Grants
First time home buyer grants are very specific grants that are only given to those people who are purchasing their own houses for the first time. Grants are the best way that you can get some extra money to help you get your first house. Since grants are given by the government or by different foundations, you do not carry the responsibility to repay them in the future.
You heard me right – grants are essentially like free money that will help you to buy your start up house. This is often called free money by the government because in most of the grants, there are no payments monthly and there are no interest charged. This is a great help since having your initial house is very hard. The government and some institutions give you the things that you need to set up the house that you want.
There are different criteria when you apply for this type of grant. Different states also have different application processes and requirements that you need to go through. You need to realize that neither the contributions nor the seller necessities are needed. What you need though is that your income to be inside the minimum requirement that they allow. Also keep in mind that the minimum range of income is dependent on the location of the house that you want to purchase. It can also vary because of the number of dependents that you have.
However hard and whatever these processes that you need to go though, the amount of money that you can get through these grants is astronomical. That is why you do not want to pass up the opportunity to apply and get these grants.
Here are some sample requirements that you need:
Requirements regarding income – many states have a specific minimum income range that they want the applicant to have. You need to be with in the range of the income requirement before you can avail of the grant.
Requirements regarding location – location is a very important part in real estate. It is also one of most important aspects if you want to have your grant. There are some states that give special discounts to you so that you will purchase your home in certain communities or areas. Sometimes, this type of grant is given even to those who are not first time buyers in order to promote certain places.
Requirements regarding liquid assets – the term liquid assets refer to the minimum amount of cash that you need to have in order to avail of the said grant. This is important because the government or the institution that provides you with the grant want you to have extra money that you can spend whenever you may have some emergency repairs that you have to do.

First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit And Responsible Journalism
While many are talking about the extension of the First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit, Matt Stigliano (@rerockstar) wonders if this type of irresponsible journalism does a lot more harm than people think. As of the shooting of the video, the tax credit extension had not even gone to vote, yet tons of real estate industry blogs and tweets were going out claiming it had been passed. Upon last update, the vote wasn’t even set to take place until next week. While there is a feeling that it will be passed with little or no trouble, I find that claiming it is passed, when it is not to be frustrating and destructive to our industry-consumer relationships.

Velocity Financial is a financial services firm, were primarily focused on doing mortgages for residential purchasing and refinances. One of the things that we have seen is that the purchasing market has picked up quite a bit and looks in my eyes like we very well may have hit the bottom on prices. You can buy a 3000 square foot house for $150000 these days, and one thing that we’ve recently found is most of the sellers are willing to pay closing costs on behalf of the buyer. Its a known fact that it’s a cold sellers market and sellers are happy to have an offer, whether it be a low offer or not. Now I have a couple examples I want to share, it’s …
