One of the reasons Syracuse is a great place to live

You can buy a beautiful old house like this in good condition in a good area for 100K or so. Syracuse housing prices are much lower than other areas. This means that if you are a first time buyer and taking advantage of the 8 thousand dollar tax deduction for first time buyers, you are saving an even bigger chunk off your house.

You have to close on your house no later than NOVEMBER 31, 2009 to take advantage of this, so the time to get started looking is now.

You can call me at 315-317-2721 for more information and to find out how much of a loan you might qualify for. If you are thinking of putting your house on the market, it's a great time for this too with all those first time buyers out looking now.
