I'm pretty sure that ended in April 2010. There might be some through a builder, but I think now if they do that, they have to offer it to everyone. Predatory Lending Laws as they are now.

Someone on here works or worked for a lender. They can better asnwer this question. I know when I bought my condo in December of 2010 they had been over for like 6 months.

Real Estate agent told me that the state of north carolina got some deals for first time home buyers through certain programs. Also, I heard some banks would offer up to $5,000 in cash if I'd use em as my lander.

Usually the cash offers from the bank are tied to higher rates. You can get negative closing costs if you take a higher than market rate on teh mortgage.

Just watch the fine print and ask a lot of questions.

Dude, I'm not kidding, you need to get a good real estate agent.

Not a friend, parent, buddy or cousin, a good agent, if it's not too late in your transaction.

If you don't have a buyers agent by now, your builder will most likely not pay one, and you would have to pay them. If that's the case, then it's just too late.

Not any programs out there really as far as first time buyers.

As for the banks, you need to shop around and get a good deal, if you don't have the $$$ for closing costs, roll it into the cost of the home. If the house was 200K, and you have 4,500 in CC, make the sale price 204,500 and have your portion come out of the closing.

      I wouldn’t disagree with that.

      I would say the fact that Dave Canales insisted on a 6 year contract should tell anyone all they need to know about his potential job security under the Tepper's. No matter how much we have heard recently about how David Tepper has learned from this and that. This is still the same man who spent $43.5 million to buy and then immediately demolish a house because of who owned it previously.

      Same lineup to hopefully finish this one out tonight.  Here's today's projected lineup from the Hurricane's official website:   Tonight's Projected Lineup... Forwards Svechnikov - Aho - Jarvis Hall - Stankoven - Blake Ehlers - Staal - Martinook Carrier - Jankowski - Robinson Defense Slavin - Chatfield Miller - Walker Gostisbehere - Nikishin Starting Goaltender Andersen --- Injuries N/A Scratches Nicolas Deslauriers Pyotr Kochetkov Jesperi Kotkaniemi Mike Reilly --- PP1: Aho, Ehlers (Staal), Jarvis, and Svechnikov with Gostisbehere PP2: Blake, Hall, Jankowski, and Stankoven with Miller I'm getting to the point to where I have to get away from social media.  The narrative is still in some circles that Carolina has played no one.  I just don't see how you can continue to discount what our opponents in the playoffs have done, either to make it to the playoffs or the clubs they beat to faceoff against us.  I know this is how Carolina always get's treated, but if we win tonight our record is 12-1 in the playoffs. 12-1!  Meanwhile, along the way the "talking heads" had us losing in every round.  Maybe, just maybe, Carolina's just that damn good. /rant Here's to kickin azz and taking names tonight. LET'S GO CANES!!
