Weichert Seminar Helps Prospective Buyers Make Most of Once in a Lifetime Opportunity

MORRIS PLAINS, N.J. – Weichert, Realtors will host a company-wide seminar on Saturday April 10, along with its affiliate company, Weichert Financial Services, to educate homebuyers on the specifics of the soon-to-expire tax credit and the benefits of buying in a market with low interest rates and affordable prices. 

The free, no-obligation seminar will detail the $8,000 tax credit for first-time buyers that was extended by Congress last year based on its success in aiding a housing recovery and stimulating the overall economy.  The session will also educate attendees on the additional $6,500 tax credit Congress created for current homeowners and the steps potential buyers need to take if they wish to qualify for either of these incredible financial incentives which are set to expire on April 30. 

“The tax credit’s great success has helped countless Americans take advantage of once in a lifetime buying conditions to realize their dream of owning a home,” said James M. Weichert, president and founder of Weichert, Realtors. “Our seminar aims to educate and make prospective buyers aware of the tax credit benefits before they are no longer available for good.”      

Weichert’s seminar will include a brief presentation that details the different components of the tax credit and the many benefits of owning a home, followed by a question and answer session.  Weichert managers and sales associates will also review the current market and illustrate why now is a great time to buy.  To reserve your seat or to learn more about the time and location of the seminar nearest you, call your local Weichert office.  For a directory of Weichert locations, visit Weichert.com.
