Home Buyer Tax Credit Expands…..
Great News! The first time homebuyer program ($8000 tax credit) has been extended until June 2010, and this time it is not only for first time homebuyers anymore…YOU MAY ALSO QUALIFY. Highlighted below are the important points to consider.
$8000 TAX CREDIT
You are no longer locked out because you earn too much, now you can qualify for the entire $8000 credit if…
- Single income of $125,000 and married income of $225,000
- Those who make more will be phased out
- Credit ends completely once single income reaches $145,000 and married income ends at $245,000 (This was capped at 95k and 170k)
- You must buy a home or have a binding contract to buy by April 30, 2010
- The property you purchase cannot have been acquired from a relative
$6500 EXPANDED TAX CREDIT:
This new incentive called a “MOVE UP” credit for CURRENT HOMEOWNERS. If you owned and lived in the same home at least five consecutive years of the last eight years you could qualify for this credit if you buy a new home between now and April 30th. How and when?
- You don’t have to sell your current residence to qualify, you can rent your current residence and buy another
- All of the above mentioned income requirements under the $8000 tax credit program apply
- The new house cannot cost more than $800,000
- The replacement or new house must become your primary residence. You can rent your current home or list it for sale
- Variety of dwelling types are allowed including condos, manufactured, mobile homes, and boats that function as your principal residence
- Second and investment homes are not allowed
This is absolutely your last opportunity to take advantage of these programs, Congress has strongly indicted it will not extend the program after June 2010. If the government is willing to give you a $6500 credit to move faster, why not?

At first, it appeared Trulending Mortgage Corp. would be handling a simple refinance at a great rate, but they uncovered problems with two of my
banks, had to work tenaciously until they were corrected, and stayed in touch with updates and good spirits throughout. This was, by far, the most enjoyable and financially rewarding business transaction ever.
— Connie Turner, Sierra Madre CA
“As a retiree, I want to commend Trulending Mortgage Corp. and Lalin De Soyza for guiding me through the tough new federal guidelines for mortgage refinancing so that I could be successful. They are knowledgeable, efficient, and responsive. My highest recommendation.”
–Robert Murdoch, Pasadena CA
“Lalin guided us through the lending process with courtesy and efficiency. Because we had a new business, our situation was complex, and Lalin made sure that we made the right decisions and understood the process. We highly recommend him and Trulending Mortgage.”
– Justin Moore and Andrea Boeck
“Trulending Mortgage did an incredible job! They guided me to get the right loan for me and worked hard to get the job done quickly. I was impressed that they go me approval so quickly and they were easy to reach and very responsive. Great working professionals that return calls right away and help walk me through the process. I absolutely recommend their services.”
–Dan Wakumoto, West Covina CA
“The closing process was a disaster due to a bad Escrow company but Trulending was excellent. They even caught the fees the escrow company tried to include in my closing costs which I was not liable for. That alone saved me $1,800.00.”
–Devanka Aluwihare, Los Angeles
“After working with two different lenders who promised me the world and never delivered, Trulending Mortgage and especially Lalin De Soyza was exactly what I needed. He explained the process for me and was extremely patient and helpful in getting me the best loan and
rate out there. I own my first property now and will definitely use his
services in the future”
–Sincerely, Sammy S
“You’ve been a real gem. I appreciate your professionalism and promptness through this whole grueling process. You have my sincerest gratitude and any future referrals I can pass your way.”
–Cheryl P, M.D. Redondo Beach CA
“From the initial application to the closing of my loan, Mr. De Soyza and his team were very professional, dedicated and available at all times to assist and give me valuable advice on my loan, including ensuring I got the best rate by locking in my rate at the optimal time, not what was available at the time of my application. Additionally, they went above and beyond by assisting me with resolving some issues on my credit report and worked with my hectic travel schedule.”
Sincerely,
–Gina Turner, San Ramon CA
“When we were looking to refinance last spring Lalin came in highly recommended to us and he was very patient while we waited quite a while for the rates to hit our target after we were pre-approved for the loan. It was so nice to have a friendly voice to guide us through a process that can be stressful, and Lalin was always available to explain different scenarios or answer any
questions that we had. We would certainly recommend Lalin and Trulending Mortgage for close attention and personalized service.”
–Peter and DeAnna G., San Francisco
“I just wanted to commend you and the entire TruLending team for your excellent service and assistance with our mortgage refinance. We really appreciated all the attention and time you took to walk us through the process and answer all of our questions. We definitely felt like you had our best interests in mind and were our advocate in the process”
–Francis B., Burbank CA
“Working with Lalin and Tony was a wonderful experience. When I refer people to them, the first thing I always tell them is that they are responsive, which is as important to me as getting a good rate. I would leave a voicemail message or send an e-mail, and would hear back within an hour or less”
— Nancy B., Caliente, CA
“We recently refinanced our house with help from Trulending Mortgage, and the service that Lalin and Tony provided was excellent from beginning to end. They were able to offer us a lower rate than our previous broker—and with lower closing costs, too. Our refinance was complicated for a number of reasons; Lalin and Tony worked tirelessly to usher us through every step of the process, and ensure that the low rate that they had originally secured for us would remain. I recommend Trulending Mortgage enthusiastically”.
— Joe R. & Tammy S., San Francisco,CA
I would like to let everybody to know that Trulending Mortgage went out of their way get the Loan for us when we got our second House. Lalin & Tony where there with us through the whole process. Best of Luck to them in the Future.
— Vito & Anna S., Denair, CA
“Lalin De Soyza at Trulending Mortgage is excellent. Mr. De Soyza followed through on the interest rate, no points, and closing costs exactly as promised. The interest rate was a quarter percent less than three other companies were offering at the same time, except that he lowered the closing costs by a few hundred dollars. From start to end the loan took about 15 days to close”.
Lalin and his team are courteous and straightforward and follow through.
