My son got married in July 2009. With his new wife, they intend to buy a house before 1 December 2009. My son has owned a condo, that he bought ~ 3 years ago (he lived in that condo until 13 months ago). He now rents the condo.
His "new" wife has never owned a house. Their real estate is telling them that if they buy a new house, in HER name, that SHE would be entitled to the currently available IRS tax credit for $8k -as first time new buyer tax credit?
As the real estate agent is NOT a tax pro; plus she has a real estate commission on the "line"- I do NOT trust her tax advice.
Is my daughter-in-law eligible for a $8k (new home owner) tax credit?
Sure appreciate any guidance - that I might relay to my son/wife!
