Today, President Obama signed the homebuyer tax credit
closing date deadline extension into law. Previously eligible home buyers were required to have a valid signed purchase contract on or before April 30, 2010 and close no later than June 30, 2010. (Many short sale homebuyers had valid contracts on or before April 30th but still had no response from the seller's lender by June 30th.)
The closing date only now has been extended to September 30, 2010 for those eligible homebuyers who had valid purchase contracts on or before April 30, 2010. Sadly, many
short sale homebuyers will still be waiting for a response from the sellers' lenders come September 30th.
