7 suggestions for spending your $8,000 first time homebuyer tax credit

First time homebuyers can receive a tax credit of up to $8,000 if they buy a house before the December 1 deadline. What could you do with the 8,000 extra dollars? If you do not already have a plan on how to spend or save the money, you may want to consider one of the following 7 suggestions for spending your $8,000 first time homebuyer tax credit.
  1. Buy another property with cash. As of this post there are over 2o properties listed for sale in Central Florida priced at $8,000 or below. These listings are either condos or manufactured homes.
  2. Buy a new computer monitor. NEC CRV43
  3. You could by an arcade/video game. Grand Daddy
  4. Launch a personal Satellite. Interorbital Systems
  5. Buy a camera. Nikon D3X
  6. Buy a 'Battlestar Galactica' figure. Cylon
  7. Something nice for your new home. Chandelier

Of course don't forget you could also donate the money to charity. The key is that you will miss out on the opportunity to spend the extra 8 grand if you do not buy a home before the deadline expires. Give me a call to find out if you qualify for the first time home buyer tax credit.
