Attention Investors/ First time home Buyers

Good afternoon to all. I wanted to share the news if you have not heard.
The Federal Reserve announced late yesterday that they are keeping the interest rates low, these are among the lowest levels we have seen in years.
This is great news for first time home buyers who can still take advantage of the $8000.00 Tax Credit and the low interst rates.

I work with a couple of great lenders and would be happy to refer any Investor or First time home Buyer to them. The article below details the Feds decision and why. Very interesting Read in Today's Wall Street Journal.
Best Regards,
Nancy
