You may be able to feel her presence when viewing the “Peace Pole” that stands next to the treehouse.

Inside, the home boasts six bedrooms, five full bathrooms and two half baths. The top quality gourmet kitchen was remodeled by the current owners and includes all new cabinets, appliances and much more.

We’re doing another open house on Sunday (4/19/09) at 11742 Great Owl Circle, Reston. We’ve also pulled together a bunch of pictures of the first floor of the house into what’s called a PhotoSynth. A Photosynth is a unique way to do a three-dimensional tour of the house using standard pictures. It seems a little clunky at first, but once you’ve played around with it a little bit its a unique way to navigate photos. Let me know what you think in the comments.

Understanding the First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit

Bob Nelson — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 12:52:35 +0000

Ever since its announcement, there has been considerable confusion over the first-time homebuyer credit. A frequently asked question pertains to whether or not someone can co-sign on the note and still have the principal buyer qualify for the credit. I had asked numerous lenders, title attorneys and other realtors all of whom had given me the same basic answer. This being, “Well they should be able to qualify” or “They must be able to get it. This was actually the conclusion I had already drawn, but wanted a definitive response. After three weeks of trying to come up with the answer, I finally got to the bottom-line. As long as the co-signer is not a spouse (who has owned a home within the last three years), the principal is indeed entitled to the tax credit. The answer if provided by Rob Dietz, Ph.D., director of tax issues for the National Association of Home Builders. If you would like further info, simply check the link: Homebuyer Tax Credit.
