Portlanders are a frugal bunch and so taking advantage of every single possible tax credit is always prudent, don’t you think?  I believe most everyone has heard about the 1st-time buyer tax credit of $8000.  But, you can’t hear enough about a good thing so I will include some formerly posted FAQ’s about that credit at the end of this post.  This home-buyer credit added to the abundance of inventory with adjusted prices and low interest rates has made certain price points start to move in the Portland Oregon real estate market.

Remember the difference between a “tax deduction” and a “tax credit” is that a credit is a dollar for dollar tax savings and a deduction means your taxable income is less.

There are other tax credits available and free $$$ from the IRS is always a good thing!!  Please click on the following link for more possibilities of saving:  http://bit.ly/TaxCredits
