The credit was one of the best things out of this mess. I know many good families that were awarded an opportunity to buy because of it.

Really Good regarding income tax extension filing. I would like to read all post and main thing is that this year I think more people are filing tax extension because of recession. Thanks for sharing

Hopefully this is extended and expanded prior to the deadline. Home prices in Florida are finally down to where I can afford to buy a home, and would like to be able to take advantage of this program. Also since 30yr fixed rates are near historic lows, there has never been a better time, and the tax credit is great incentive. By the way this is the only part of the stimulous that is actually working. The reason? Because it is a tax credit, not a bailout, not a freebie. Proof that tax cuts are what stimulate not handouts.

Well we pulled our offer on the short sale, and found another house that was a foreclosure. It was owned by Fannie Mae, and was such a smooth, efficient process! Our offer was accepted in a week, and we close on the 13th!

They should extend to credit to ALL buyers for at least another six months… but my suggestion would be to exclude all foreclosed and short sells from it. These sales are already a great deal to the buyer and don't need the additional incentive. The $15K idea seems a little far fetched and too costly, but the current 8K for all buyers except those under forclosure or short sale would be a good compromise.
