It was February 2009 that a massive wave of first time home buyers began entering the real estate market based on the availability of an $8,000 federal income tax credit incentive.  With a requirement that one live in the house for three years in order to avoid recapture of the credit we fully expect to see a corresponding wave of move up buyers beginning this spring.  We are already seeing listings that stipulate an earliest possible close date tied to the three year timetable.  With interest rates even lower than they were three years ago the potential impact on the mid range, $125,000 – $275,000, market is not to be ignored.  If you own a property in that price range, and have had thoughts of selling, 2012 just might be the right time to be talking to the Vaccaros.  Remember whether buying or selling, moving up or downsizing, Lincoln or Omaha, the Vaccaros stand ready to assist you, your family, friends and co-workers.  Give us a phone call or drop us an email message today.
