I have been busy helping first time home buyers find the best deals in real estate in the past ten years!  Deals are to be had, with prices down 20% or more in some areas of Grand Rapids in just the last year.

What is making first time home buyers go out looking for a new home?

The $8,000 first time home buyer tax credit! Yes, that is right.  The United States of America wants to give you $8,000 just for buying your first home!  I wish that tax credit was available when I was buying my first home, but I’ll be more than happy to settle with helping others take through the process.

Interest rates as low as 5% are definitely helping out also.  With such a low interest rate, a home payment can be as low as a rental!

If you would like to know more about the process of buying a home, I would love to help.  It’s your market; don’t let it pass you by!
