Please extend the tax credit! We are waiting to purchase a home until we know that the tax credit will be extended. If it doesn’t pass we will not be purchasing a home for a couple of years.

I started the loan process in April. I am a veteran, 3 times deployed. I went through the process with M & T Bank. It was a fiasco. They were so slow. I lost my lot becasue they didn’t close on the date agreed on. So we tried again, and it took until Sep 18th to close on the building loan. That means the house will not be finished until Feb 2010. That means I can’t meet the final closing by 1 Dec. That means M & T Bank has screwed me out of my 8,000 tax credit. They screwed around from April until Sep. That’s a little more than the 90 days you talk about. So what recourse do I have?

Extend it! Prices will continue to decline past 8K. They will probably not level out until the foreclosures become more scarce… At least phase out the credit … 6K, 4K, 2K, 0K… Don’t just stop it like the car credit!

Extend, Extend to ALL Home Owners. Times are not just tough for those who rent! If I moved out of my small starter home, then a first time homeowner might have a place they want to buy! The market move, realtors get paid and everyone is happy. Most of these homes on the market sitting are quite expensive! A credit would certainly help my family.

Please extend it! I’m in the process of waiting for the bank approval on a short sale. In fact, I’ve been waiting since July 15th 2009. With short sales becoming the norm, and short sale process taking sooooo.. long, we need an extension on the deadline for the $8000 tax credit..

I’m at the border line of closing/not closing before December 1st. I could also use an extension.
PLEASE EXTEND THE DEADLINE!

The tax credit was my motivation to get off the fence and become a first time home owner! However, with how long home sales are taking it is unrealistic to punish those who have already made offers and are waiting to close!

PLEASE EXTEND THE $8000 CREDIT!!!!!!
