What does the new federal housing tax credit mean for you?
In its efforts to stimulate the economy and revive the housing market, Congress has enacted legislation providing a tax credit of up to $8,000* for first-time home buyers.
But time is of the essence for buyers who want to take advantage of this opportunity. Only homes purchased on or after January 1, 2009 and before December 1, 2009 are eligible.

carpet cleaning You couldn’t treat rare wooden tables with the same chemicals which you use to clean the tiles in the bath. If you try to do it, it would be just nothing left of your very expensive table. The different tiles should be treated different also. You should be more careful with the faience than for the terracotta. It is much easier to scratch them and to damage them badly. If the tiles get more scratches, it would be easier to break, they will lose their gloss, just they will look terrible at the end and you should change them. carpet cleaning London
