…Fort Worth Streetcar Update!
Saturday, July 10th, 2010 at 12:53am. 0 Comments.
FORT WORTH — What the heck is all this talk about a “Fort Worth Streetcar” system? In short, this is a great project from the City of Fort Worth and the Fort Worth Transportation Authority that will help bring further economic development and better urban mobility to Fort Worth’s downtown and surrounding areas.
On Thursday, July 8, 2010, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) awarded this project $25 million in funding…the maximum amount possible from this effort. This will allow an initial 2.5-mile one-way streetcar loop to be constructed connecting a Trinity Railway Express (TRE) commuter rail station and Intermodal Transportation Center with the central business district of Fort Worth.

New Tax Credit for First-Time Homebuyers
Wednesday, February 25th, 2009 at 9:08pm. 0 Comments.
Could you or anyone you know use $8,000 FREE?
The 2009 First-Time Home Buyer Tax Credit was just passed into law in February 2009. This credit is available for first time home buyers only who purchase and close on a home in 2009. A first time home buyer is someone who has not owned a principal residence during the three year period prior to the purchase. So, you could actually have owned a home in the past and still qualify. You also must be a U.S. citizen and file your taxes... AND you don’t have to pay it back! (unless you sell the house within 3 years after you purchase it….)
Of course there is a bit of fine print. If you are single or head-of-household you can claim the full $8,000 credit if your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) is less
