The Government Has Acted, Now It’s Up To Us!

The national government has done its part in helping to reinvigorate the housing market through the extension of the tax credit. But some people may be anxious about missing the April deadline. So what happens when the tax credit is over?

The Coldwell Banker Buyer Bonus Will Move

The Market In The Right Direction

• Our “Buyer Bonus Event” kicks off on May 1st to coincide with the end of the tax credit extension and will conclude on July 31st. During this three month period, sellers participating in the promotion are giving 3% of the accepted offer price up to $10,000 credit at closing back to homebuyers who sign an offer before the July 31st deadline.

• We believe there could be a potential slowdown in real estate sales once the tax credit extension ends on April 31st. The Coldwell Banker Buyer Bonus Event will allow participating Coldwell Banker home sellers to “essentially” extend the credit for participating homebuyers.

• Plus the Coldwell Banker Buyer Bonus Event has fewer restrictions. With the increased inventory around the country, Coldwell Banker listings will stand out from the competition.

• The goal of this national “Buyer Bonus Event” is to help sellers improve the chances that their home will sell more quickly during a particularly challenging time for the marketplace – and to help incentivize buyers that missed the tax credit deadline by allowing them to still reap the financial benefits the tax credit would have provided.
