The bill amends the IRS tax code to provide up to $15,000 in refundable federal tax credits for first-time homebuyers.<\/p>\n<p>First-Time Homebuyer Act and First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit are both synonyms for the same item. In this post, we&#8217;ll use their names interchangeably.<\/p>\n<p>The First-Time Homebuyer Act of 2021 intends to facilitate homeownership for low- and middle-income Americans.

A first-time home buyer is required.<\/p>\n<p>2. A home must not have been owned in the previous 36 months.<\/p>\n<p>3. Must stay within the region&#8217;s income ceilings<\/p>\n<p>4. No second homes or rental properties may be purchased; they must be used as a primary residence.<\/p>\n<p>5. Applicants must be at least 18 years old or married to an adult.<\/p>\n<p>6. Must be buying the house from a stranger<\/p>\n<h3>To determine your eligibility, obtain preapproval.<\/h3>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #800000;\">The First-Time Homebuyer Act: How Does It Operate?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The First-Time Homebuyer Act, also known as the $15,000 First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit of 2021, is not a grant in cash like the Downpayment Toward Equity Act, nor is it a loan that must be repaid.<\/p>\n<p>The tax credit is worth 10% of the cost of your home, but it cannot be more than $15,000 in 2021 inflation-adjusted dollars.<\/p>\n<p>For the following five years, the maximum first-time home buyer tax credit would rise as follows, assuming a 5% inflation rate for 2021 and 2022:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Maximum tax credit of $15,000 in 2021.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Maximum tax credit of $15,750 in 2022.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Maximum tax credit of $16,538 in 2023.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Maximum tax credit of $17,364 in 2024.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Maximum tax credit of $18,233 in 2025.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A tax credit is directly credited to your federal tax bill or refund when you receive one.<\/p>\n<p>Half of the available credit may be claimed by married couples who file their taxes separately, and non-married buyers may claim their proportionate share of the credit.
