The Weekly Poll: Will the $8,000 home buyer tax credit help the Knoxville housing market?

163-365 - 6/12/08  Meat Stimulation

The weekly poll is ready for your voting pleasure. Don’t leave it hangin’.

This week’s poll question has to do with something people in my line of work are talking a lot about these days: the $8,000 Home Buyer Tax Credit that was a part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.

Even though the tax credit may be a little hard to understand, it looks like it could be a very good thing for first-time buyers and for local real estate.  But what do you think about the credit? Will it jump start the housing market by  encouraging potential  home buyers to make a move, or is it just a nice perk for those already in the market to buy? Cast your vote and let me know.

While I may not be able to give you a tax credit, I can always give you all the latest news on the Knoxville real estate market -  Just subscribe to All Around KTown by RSS or email today!

    It’ll help some market… since we’re going to be selling here and buying somewhere else. Because we can’t find decent employment here. Grrrrr.

    Oh noes! But hopefully it will encourage the perfect buyer to buy your home :) Good luck with all of that.
