Revised first-time homebuyer tax credit

The final version of the $787 billion stimulus bill revises the existing $7,500 first-time homebuyers tax credit. The major changes include an increase of the credit to $8,000, elimination of the payback option, recaptures the full amount if home/condo is sold within three years and extends the credit to properties purchased by November 30, 2009.
