As part of the new Economic Stimulus Bill being thrashed around in the senate, and on top of the Tax Credit proposed for all home buyers allowing them a tax credit at the rate of 10% of the sales price up to a limit of $15,000, there now is Amendment 353.
Amendment 353, proposed by Senator John Ensign, Republican Senator from Nevada, would provide 30 year fixed rate financing at about 4%, for anyone purchasing a primary residence. If this passes the House and if there is more sensitivity by lenders in handling those threatened by foreclosure, we could really be on our way to recovery in the housing market.
