Wilsonville, Oregon Home Buyer Tax Credit – FAQ

agreen — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 17:59:44 +0000

Tax Credits Provide Outstanding Opportunities for Home Buyers

The Worker, Homeownership, and Business Assistance Act of 2009 has extended the tax credit of up to $8,000 for qualified first-time home buyers purchasing a principal residence. It also authorized a tax credit of up to $6,500 for qualified repeat home buyers.

Some of the more commonly-asked questions, and the answers, include:

How does a home buyer claim the tax credit? The credit is claimed when the home buyer files or amends their federal income taxes. For qualifying homes purchased in 2009 or 2010, the taxpayer must complete IRS Form 5405 and attach a copy of the settlement statement. In most cases, the settlement statement is a properly executed Form HUD-1.In circumstances where a HUD-1 is not provided, such as purchasing a mobile home or a newly constructed home, the IRS will accept an executed retail sales contract (mobile homes) or a copy of the certificate of occupancy (new homes).

Does the home buyer have to sell their current home in order to qualify for the $6,500 repeat home buyer tax credit? A home buyer does not need to sell their current home in order to be eligible for the repeat buyer credit. They can continue to own both homes, and rent or use their former home for something else, as long as it no longer serves as their principal residence. The taxpayer is required to use the new home as their principal residence, and live in it for at least 36 months, or they will have to repay the credit.

Do married couples both have to meet the eligibility requirements in order to claim the credit, even if they file taxes separately? Both spouses must fully meet all the eligibility requirements for either the $8,000 first-time home buyer tax credit or the $6,500 repeat buyer tax credit, regardless of if they file joint or separate tax returns. However, if an unmarried couple purchases a home and only one person qualifies, the eligible person may claim the full credit.

Do all home purchases need to be completed by April 30, 2010, in order to be eligible for the credit? There are two exceptions to the April 30 deadline. If the buyer enters into a binding contract by the deadline, they have until June 30, 2010, to complete the purchase. The deadline has been extended a year, to April 30, 2011, for members of the uniformed services, Foreign Service or employees of the intelligence community who have been on qualified extended duty outside the United States for at least 90 days between January 1, 2009, and April 30, 2010.

April 30th is almost here. Are you ready to take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity? (maybe twice)

Villebois named Community of the Year by the National Association of Home Builders

agreen — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 23:00:11 +0000

Costa Pacific Communities announced that its latest community, Villebois located in Wilsonville, Ore., received the Gold Award for the highest honorary award, Community of the Year, at the National Association of Home Builders’ (NAHB) NationalsSM Awards ceremony in Las Vegas on Jan. 19, 2010.

Villebois is a New Urbanist, pedestrian-friendly and transit-oriented community featuring a mix of housing types and a Village Center located adjacent to the Westside Express Service (WES) rail line in Wilsonville.

This is not the first “Community of the Year” award for the master planner and developer. In 1999, Costa Pacific received the prestigious award for Orenco Station in Hillsboro, Ore. Costa Pacific has been recognized both nationally and internationally for the communities it creates, and is proud to have become the most awarded builder/developer in the Northwest.

“It was thrilling to be selected from such prestigious company,” said Rudy Kadlub, Costa Pacific Communities CEO. “I’m overjoyed that we won this top honor. Villebois is a unique community, unlike any other in the world and I’m proud it’s already being recognized for its progressive vision.”

Costa Pacific did not stop at the Gold Award for Community of the Year. It brought home three more Gold awards for Best Logo, Best Website for a Community and Best Product Design of an Attached Home Plan.

“The judges were so impressed by the story of Villebois…how thoughtfully the team crafted a “new” sense of place and community, said Peter Mayer, NAHB judging chairman. “From the product chosen to the way it was brought to market…They were spot on.”

Villebois offers area homebuyers a broad assortment of home styles and amenities from which to choose. Based on the intimacy and character of traditional European villages, the Villebois Village Center features everything from condominiums and row homes to apartments and mixed use buildings with ground level retail, residential or office space above. The Piazza Villebois, a dedicated community space and plaza, will serve as the heart of the Villebois Village Center and will be the future site of community events and other activities.

Update on Legend Homes at Villebois

agreen — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 17:07:14 +0000

For those of you wondering the latest status on Legend at Villebois here you go. Legend Homes only has two finished homes remaining in phase 1 in Villebois. One of those homes recently went pending so that leaves them with only 1 remaining available home for sale. It looks as if they will come out of chapter 11 bankruptcy around the beginning of 2010 and hopefully begin construction on new homes once that has happened and they have sold their last finished home.

Full Story: Matrix will also give back raw land in its Phase 2 project at Villebois. The Villebois subdivision was master planned…….. Read the rest of the story here.
