|
|
The National Association of Estate Agents (NAEA) has stated that the number of first time buyers (FTB) looking to purchase a home has increased considerably in the first two weeks of 2009. 22.5% of registered buyers were FTB, up from 10% in December 2008.
Although this shouldn't be taken as a sign that the housing market is entering a recovery, it is certainly a positive note and can be seen as a sign of increased consumer confidence. |

| I think agents began marketing the home buyer credit to first time home buyers and if they buy by april 15th they can file a 1040x and amend their tax return and get the credit now rather than waiting a year. |
