Attention First Time Home Buyer!

Angie Adams SRES REALTOR Broker — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 18:53:00 GMT

Note that this information is outdated.

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.

New 55+ Community in Tega Cay

Angie Adams SRES REALTOR Broker — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 17:08:00 GMT

If you like the small-town ambiance and the big-city accessibility, this is a community for you!

Land is being prepared for an 820-home, 55 plus community in Tega Cay. The developer has broken ground for a $3 million clubhouse and amenity center.

Three builders, and more in the works, have committed to buying 462 lots in the 435-acre development near the Catawba River. The site is west of S.C. Highway 160, along Dam and Grayrock roads.

The first model homes in Lake Ridge are to be complete in a month, with Tribute Homes opening an “age-targeted, maintenance-free” section of homes for residents 55 and older.

Those houses are being built on lots with 56 feet of street frontage, and are priced from the $190,000s to $240,000s.

Within two months, five speculative homes should be available. The amenity center is slated to open July 1.

County will maintain the Roads in Sun City Carolina Lakes

Angie Adams SRES REALTOR Broker — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 17:46:00 GMT

Sun City residents were worried the Lancaster County Council wouldn't approve a measure accepting the roads. As it turns out, no vote is required. They are now relieved that roads will be allowed into the county roads system - provided they are built to county standards.

Accepting the roads into the system is part of the development agreement between Pulte Homes and Lancaster County. Previously, the County Administrator had said it was an issue for the council - which recently voted not to accept roads in the BridgeMill and Glen Laurel subdivisions - to decide. Prior to that finding, Sun City residents were concerned they might be left footing the bill for road maintenance.

The guardhouse at the entrance to Sun City will be allowed to remain in the median.

Because the guardhouse is in the median, the development agreement allows Sun City to keep it and maintain the building. During the day, the guardhouse is staffed by a resident greeter who stops cars that do not have a decal identifying the driver as a Sun City resident. It also serves as an information center. In the evening, off-duty Lancaster County Sheriff's Department deputies man the guardhouse. That will not change even after Sun City's roads are accepted into the county road system.

With York County Growth come some Challenges

Angie Adams SRES REALTOR Broker — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 14:50:00 GMT

York County picked up 10,395 people, bringing its population to 208,827. But with the increase comes challenges. Area school systems must find ways to accommodate the influx of new students. Fort Mill schools for example will open two new elementary campuses, Sugar Creek Elementary off Farm House Road and Pleasant Knoll Elementary off Pleasant Road in August 2009. They'll ease crowded conditions at the district's five elementaries which three of them have capped enrollment. I believe all...(read more)

Seattle has led among metro areas tracked by Radar Logic for its 6 percent annualized gain in home prices over the past two years, while Miami has led over the past five years. Sacramento, meanwhile, has shown the largest two-year annualized decline and Detroit has shown the largest five-year decline.
