In case you haven’t heard, a bill has been introduced in Congress to increase the stimulus for the residentail real estate market.  In it’s currrent form, the incentive is for all home buyers and does not have income limitations.  This means that everyone can benefit from this plan…even if you stay where you are.

Should this bill pass before Congress adjourns in August, will you be among the “movers and shakers?” 

Can you think of anything else that would create more jobs?

Your response is important to us….
