Montgomery AL Tax Rebates

by The Hat Team

Congress’ recent $170 billion economic stimulus plan centers around tax rebates; because the details of the plan are still foggy, many Montgomery AL real estate owners and taxpayers have questions about the rebates and how they will benefit.

Though the details are still being worked out, some facts have been made available:

  • To be eligible for a full rebate, single tax filers must have 2007 adjusted gross income (AGI) below $75,000.  These filers will get rebates up to $600.
  • Joint filers must have AGI below $150,000 and are eligible to receive rebates of up to $1,200.
  • Parents will receive $300 rebates per dependent child and there is no cap on the maximum number of children eligible.
  • Filers who do not owe income taxes because of various credits and deductions but who do have at least $3,000 in income (can include Social Security or disability payments) will get $300 rebates per person or $600 per couple.
  • The rebate is a one-time tax cut – an advance on a credit you’ll receive on your 2008 return.

If you make the IRS deadline and file your taxes by April 15, you can expect to receive a rebate check in the mail sometime between May and July.

Montgomery AL Real Estate Market Trends

by The Hat Team

The volume of Montgomery AL real estate sales of existing homes is expected to hold steady through late spring, with a gradual recovery during the second half of the year as the mortgage situation improves in high-cost areas, according to the latest forecast by the National Association of Realtors.

 

Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist, said many buyers have been waiting for higher mortgage loan limits.  “The higher loan limits for both FHA and conventional loans will increase consumer choice and provide greater access to lower interest rate mortgages in high-cost regions,” he said.  “Therefore, a notable rise in home sales can be anticipated in the second half of the year.”

 

Let’s take a look at the real estate sales statistics for February 2008 to see how the market is looking in Midtown Montgomery:

  

The Midtown Montgomery market continued to see a bit of a slowdown in February 2008 when compared against February 2007.  The number of pending sales increased by 6%, while the number of sold listings was 22% lower than in February of 2007.  Homes were on the market for an average of 13 more days than last year, and the average sales price went down 19% to $134,032.
