urchasing a home offers many valuable tax advantages. This is especially true today with new government programs and credits that offer up to $18,000 toward your new home. When you add these up with historically low interest rates and favorable prices, home ownership is more attainable than ever.

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act: $8,000 Credit

This credit is available until December 31, 2009 for single buyers who have incomes under $75,000 and married buyers with incomes under $150,000. (Please note that if the home is sold prior to three years the credit must be repaid.)

Homeowner Affordability and Stability Plan : $10,000 Credit

California's $10,000 state tax credit for first-time homebuyers was enacted on March 1, 2009, and is only available until March 1, 2010. The full tax benefit is available to the first 10,000 first-time buyers who take advantage of it. This can be combined with the federal credit above for a total of $18,000 when you buy at Evo. (Again, please note that if the home is sold prior to three years the credit must be repaid.)

STANDARD INCOME TAX BENEFITS

Closing Costs

These tax-deductible costs include escrow fees, lender fees, title report, documentary transfer taxes and capital contribution. Loan discount points and origination fees are tax deductible to the buyer, regardless of who pays them. This is an especially good deduction because you get the benefit even if the seller paid your closing costs. Plus, with origination fees often in excess of 1%, this deduction can be very valuable to you.

Mortgage Interest

You can deduct all of the interest you pay on your mortgage. If you are in the 28% federal tax bracket, this can have the effect of lowering your borrowing costs by almost a third!

Sale Profit

If you have owned and occupied your principal residence for at least two of the past five years, you can earn up to $500,000 on the sale of that house and pay no federal income tax on that profit. Married couples can take $500,000 each, tax free. If you are single you can claim up to $250,000.

Homebuying FAQ

What Are The Considerations In Buying vs. Renting?

Rents vary yearly while a mortgage payment can be fixed for 3 to 50 years. And when you own you are building equity instead of giving it to a landlord. Plus you can use the equity in your home to pay off debt or make new investments.

A mortgage can result in substantial tax breaks. When you add in the federal tax deductions for mortgage interest and real estate taxes, homeownership becomes more affordable than you might think.

What Are The Advantages Of Buying New Construction?

Newly constructed condominiums come with brand new appliances and finishes, adding convenience, comfort, beauty and confidence - as all appliances and construction are warranted to ensure everything works properly. Newly constructed projects are generally located in up-and-coming areas, making them more sought-after and easier to sell than older homes.
