President Obama has approved the extension of the $8000 first time home buyer tax credit as well as a $6500 credit for repeat or move-up home buyers who have lived in their primary residence for five years or more. The credits will now end on may 1st.

There are a few stipulations to both credits but with low interest rates it is still a great time to buy property.
