"Free" Money from the Missouri Housing Development Commission!

Some very exciting news for Missouri homebuyers! According to the Missouri Housing Development Commission's (MHDC) website:

MHDC is allocating $15 million towards the HOPE program. Qualified Missouri families that purchase a home in 2010 are eligible for a HOPE incentive equaling the amount of the 2009 real estate tax bill associated with the property they purchased, up to a maximum of $1,250. Additionally, homebuyers who are approved for the real estate property tax HOPE incentive may also be eligible to receive an additional amount if they bought a qualified, newly-constructed, energy-efficient home or bought an existing home and remodeled or purchased items such as Energy Star® appliances to make the home more energy efficient. The maximum combined total of the HOPE property tax incentive and the HOPE energy-efficiency incentive is $1,750.

That's incredible news, especially for homebuyers taking advantage of the Federal Stimulus Tax Credits! Money really is falling from the sky!!!

Buyers in Missouri will need to act fast, because that $15 million dollar allotment will only cover approximately 8,500 homebuyers.
