SAN DIEGO- It’s like deja vu all over again.Today Governor Arnold Schwarze
negger proposed and has sent to the state legislature a new round of state first time buyer tax credit. The tax credit as proposed would be for new or existing construction and would be paid out as a $3333.00 tax credit over a three year period. The state tax credit could be combined with the federal tax credit, but would be limited to 20,000 qualified purchase as it will be only funded with $200,000,000.
Schwarzenegger administration officials said conditions of their proposal would be similar to last year’s credit. That had no income limits, made all buyers eligible and required that buyers live in their homes. No dates have been set yet for eligibility. Buyers qualified last year by closing escrow after the credits became available on March 1.- www.sacbee.com/business
We’re still broke and as much as I wish this would be a good thing, it is just plain dumb.
