Federal First Time Buyer Tax Credit Expires

California Tax Credit Kicks In for Agoura, Oak Park, Westlake Village Buyers
Many California homebuyers took advantage of the Federal Tax Credit of up to $8,000. But that credit expired on April 30, 2010.
But the State of California just announced a similar program, worth up to $10,000 to a buyer.
Assembly Bill 183 established a tax credit of $10,000 or 5 percent of the purchase price of a newly built home and a $10,000 tax credit for first-time purchasers of existing homes.
The credit is good through Dec. 31, or until funding is exhausted, whichever comes first.
The $200 million allocated for the program is split evenly, with $100 million going to purchasers of new homes and $100 million to first-time buyers of existing homes.
