</div>
<div>
<p style="text-align: center"><a title="http://www.wannanetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sch.jpg" href="http://www.wannanetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sch.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.wannanetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sch-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s proposal to extend the <strong>$10,000 first time home buyer tax credit</strong> has been passed by California Legislature.  The tax credit would<strong> begin May 1st</strong>, 1 day after the Federal Tax Credit ends April 30th.</p>
<p>The previous California tax credit limited to a total of $100 million for new home purchases only was exhausted eight months before the proposed deadline. The initial bill credited over 10,000 home buyers. The new bill appears to double the amount assistance.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center">New California First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit Highlights</h2>
<ul>
<li>$200 million in funds available on a <strong>first come, first serve basis</strong> – could help over 20,000 home buyers</li>
<li><strong>New homes for any taxpayer</strong> and new/existing homes for first time home buyers</li>
<li>“Qualified principal residence” means a single-family residence, whether detached or attached, that is purchased to be the principal residence of the taxpayer, is eligible for the homeowner’s exemption under Section 218, and has either <strong>never been occupied</strong> <strong><em>or</em></strong> is purchased by a<strong> first-time home buyer</strong>.</li>
<li><strong>$10,000 tax credit</strong> or 5% of purchase price (whichever is lower)</li>
<li>Credit given in 3 payments to a taxpayer’s personal income tax returns over 3 year period</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Combine reduced prices in homes, 40 year low in interest rates and an incentive back from the state of California and you have the Perfect Storm.  If this doesn’t cause a small frenzy during peak purchase season (Spring and Summer), I don’t know what will.  </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>With only 20 new homes left to choose from, time is running out!  We encourage you to contact the Solara Lofts Sales Studio for our latest reduced pricing information.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Solara Lofts</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Open Daily: 10:00 am-5:00 pm</strong></p>

<p><span style="font-size: x-small;font-family: verdana">In addition; <strong>Solara Lofts is introducing the Smart Step Buy Down by Countrywide</strong> to their featured lofts. This means you can purchase one of our <strong>new lofts at an interest rate of 2.5%</strong>  <strong>for the first year, 3.5% for the second and a below market rate of 4.5% for the next 27 years!  </strong></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: x-small;font-family: verdana">The <strong>best part</strong> about the <strong>Smart Step</strong> is that <strong>it allows our preferred lender to qualify you using the start rate of 2.5%</strong>, <strong>that adds a whole lot of buying power to those of us looking for that little push to get into this outstanding buyers market.</strong>   </span></p>

<p>Additional funds for 1st time home buyers exist, so <strong><span style="color: #000000">another $8000.00 is also available. </span></strong></p>
<p>(follow the link at <a title="FTB California" href="http://www.ftb.ca.gov" target="_blank">ftb.ca.gov</a> and the federal program at <a title="Federal Housing Tax Credit" href="http://www.federalhousingtaxcredit.com" target="_blank">federalhousingtaxcredit.com</a> for the specifics) and details!</p>
<p>This is finally a way for the average guy to get some of the stimulus money. It could be the once in a lifetime deal. This is great for our downtown community at <a title="Solara Lofts - Downtown San Diego" href="http://www.solaraloftsnews.com" target="_blank">Solara Lofts</a> because this is a new community .</p>
<p>The sales team will have lenders available to talk with you and get you going to get the home of your dreams and help get the government to pay for part of it.</p>
