Just in case you haven't already heard, the first time homebuyer tax credit has been revised. This revision is posted on IRS.gov form 5405. This year, qualifying taxpayers who buy their first home before Dec. 1, 2009, can claim the credit on either their 2008 or 2009 tax returns. They do not have to repay the credit, provided the home remains their main home for 36 months after the purchase date. They can claim 10% of the purchase price up to $8,000, or $4,000 for married individuals filing separately. The amount of the credit begins to phase out for taxpayers who's adjusted gross income is more than $75,000, $150,000 for joint filers.

As reported by Forbes on 07/14/08. Charlotte is the second-largest banking capital in the U.S., behind New York City. With the University of North Carolina nearby and tons of cultural attractions, this is a city that won't get tired. The market is reflecting what residents already know: Median home prices hopped to $205,400 in 2007, from $180,900 in 2005. Charlotte's vacancy rate is just a bit above the national average at 3.1%, reflecting a lot of space that is likely to get snapped up. Read full article by Forbes

According to a report this week from a Wall Street firm, the Charlotte area’s housing market could be among the first to bounce back.
Charlotte was one of 13 regions examined by housing analysts with UBS Securities, who considered demographics, housing inventory, affordability and other economic factors.
Charlottes’ big banks job losses are a concern, but in general, population and job growth make Charlotte a leader. The Prices in Charlotte didn’t explode and so haven’t plunged as they have in overheated markets.
Based on this analysis and report, I believe markets that are currently outperforming, including Texas, Charlotte, and Atlanta, will be among the first to recover, driven by limited levels of excess single-family supply, good affordability, and robust job growth.
They don’t say when the bounce-back will occur, but offer this Greenspanian forecast: “In our opinion, a sustainable trough in for-sale housing will not be achieved until we reach a viable sales pace that can be maintained at a given price level.” Also see www.AngiesWeb.com

One Wachovia Center in downtown Charlotte is ailed as the up-and-coming Wall Street of the South, Charlotte, N.C., is home to the headquarters of both Bank of America and Wachovia. The banks have attracted a slew of young workers.
In addition to strong employment prospects, Charlotte is inexpensive to build in and speculation has remained low (home prices rose by just 36% between January 2000 and September 2007). That combination has helped keep the value of single-family homes relatively stable. Between February 2007 and February 2008, prices in Charlotte rose 1.5% — the only increase in a major metropolitan city.
