Here are some things you need to know about qualifying for the $8000 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit with your Rural USDA Loan:

1. The Home Buyer’s Tax Credit is for the First Time Home Buyer only.  If you have owned a home within the last 36 months, you are not a First Time Home Buyer.
2. The Home Buyer’s Tax Credit has income limits.  $95,000 for single filers and $170,000 for joint filers.
3. The amount of the $8000 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit is the lesser of $8,000 or 10% of the purchase price.
4. The purchase must be an arms length transaction, meaning that the buyer and seller cannot be related.

Here is an enlightening and entertaining video on the $8000 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit that my colleague from Portland Oregon, Dustin Hughes at Northwest Mortgage Advisors, put together.  Please watch and leave a comment!
