COLDWELL BANKER EXTENDS BENEFITS OF HOME BUYER TAX CREDIT WITH ‘BUYER BONUS’ SALES EVENT
|
|
Thousands of Sellers to Offer Credit Up to $8,000 from May 1 Until July 31, 2010
HOME BUYER TAX CREDIT EXTENDED AND EXPANDED
PARSIPPANY, N.J. (April 26, 2010) - Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC today
announced the launch of its Buyer Bonus Sales Event, a national promotion intended to build
on the momentum of the soon-to-expire federal homebuyer tax credit.
In a recent survey of Coldwell Banker Real Estate professionals, nearly half indicated that they
had worked with home buyers who would have missed out on the home buyer tax credit in November of
last year had it not been extended. In addition, while 34 percent cite the current tax credit
extension (expiring April 30) as the primary reason their customers are currently for searching
for a home, 28 percent said that they feel the limitations of this credit will prohibit some
buyers from taking advantage of the credit.
That is why on May 1, 2010, immediately following the expiration of this government initiative,
home sellers participating in the Coldwell Banker Buyer Bonus Sales Event will offer a credit of
3 percent (up to $8,000), when part of an accepted offer, of their home’s purchase price to
buyers who sign a contract before July 31, 2010. There is no deadline for a closing date.
"The federal government did its part to encourage millions of Americans to achieve their dream of
home ownership with the help of the home buyer tax credit," said Jim Gillespie, president and
chief executive officer for Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC. "As the credit expires, Coldwell
Banker Real Estate is encouraging buyers who haven’t found a home yet to continue looking,
while bringing a new audience of home buyers who were unable to qualify for the tax credit
into the market. We are confident that this private sector solution will represent a significant
step toward continued recovery of the housing market."
"The Buyer Bonus Sales Event will allow participating Coldwell Banker home sellers to essentially
extend the benefits of the credit," said Gillespie. "Without restrictions such as household income
caps, the Coldwell Banker Buyer Bonus Sales Event allows for greater participation for all
homebuyers. And our sellers have a unique opportunity to allow their home to stand out from the
competition in their marketplace."
Participating homes will typically be identified by Buyer Bonus Sales Event yard sign riders and
tagged as a Buyer Bonus home online at coldwellbanker.com. While searching for a
home online, home buyers can simply check the box labeled "Buyer Bonus Sales Event" to find
participating properties nearby.
All home sellers who take part in the Buyer Bonus Sales Event will receive broad marketing support
from Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC, including:
