Comments on: Housing Recession Officially Over Oct 8th! http://www.signaturecustomhomes.com/blog/2009/09/24/housing-recession-officially-over-oct-8th/ Signature Building Systems Blog Thu, 11 Mar 2010 19:30:17 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc hourly 1 By: Charlie http://www.signaturecustomhomes.com/blog/2009/09/24/housing-recession-officially-over-oct-8th/comment-page-1/#comment-8 Charlie Tue, 06 Oct 2009 17:42:21 +0000 http://www.signaturecustomhomes.com/blog/?p=111#comment-8 I believe there are, although few, opportunities for government to help us help ourselves. The tax credit is one such opportunity. There is no doubt that housing creates jobs and jobs create tax revenue. In fact, new research by tax analysts at the National Association of Home Builders indicates that extending the current tax credit for first-time home buyers for another year and making it available to all buyers with qualifying incomes would create more than 347,000 jobs and an additional $16 billion in wages and salaries over the year after the legislation is enacted. Keep in mind, creating jobs will have the quickest and longest lasting impact on our economy. I believe there are, although few, opportunities for government to help us help ourselves.

Usually, you get 1 or 2 articles a week, but I've seen several every day for the last month or so. Good news! I like the comment below about Congress not saving the people and I agree that we can save ourselves. Are you against an extension of the $8k tax credit?
