JL's Columbia SC Real Estate Blog: September 2008

 Recently I have been asked to help the MDA. The Mucular Distrphy Association in Northeast Columbia is holding a fundraiser to accumlate money for research and to send dissabled children to camp. I have been asked to participate by becoming one the volunteers that will be locked up Wednesday October 1st at 10am. They have set my bail and have asked that I raise all I can prior to that day.

 How can you help? Well, since you ask, a donation would be greatly appreciated. But, rather than asking for the typical $20-$25 donations that we are incouraged to, I will only ask for $1. That's all I want from each person willing to donate to this cause. Granted, if you wish to donate more, that would be great. However, rather than asking for a few people to donate a lot, I would rather see a lot of people donate a little each. So, would you be willing to donate $1 to help?

 If so, please follow the link and help us out! Thank you for your time and consideration!

 If you are currently thinking of buying a home, then here is some more food for thought. If you are a first time home buyer, you are currently being offered a tax credit to purchase a home. For these purposes, a first time home buyer is considered anyone who has not owned property in the past three years.

 The credit will have to be paid back at the rate of $500 a year, but it is an excellent oppertunity to recieve a credit that can be used for investment purposes.

 With prices low, interest rates low, and inventory high, now is definitely the time to buy a home. If you are thinking about buying a home, now is a great opportunity to get in touch with a Realtor or a lender and see how they can help you in the process. Don't wait around until it is too late or let fear stop you from attaining your dreams. Now is the time to find out if you qualify for a mortgage to buy your new home.

 For more information on the tax credit, interest rates, or the housing market here in Columbia, SC, please feel free to contact me at any time. The Columbia, SC real estate market is a great market, and now is the time to throw your hat in the race and find your new home.
