Day 105 - Tax Day!

If you bought a home this year, and signed the contract for purchase before April 30, 2010, then you have until September 30 (formerly June 30) of this year to close on the home.  Suweeet.

But there are things you need to know when filing your tax return, so check out the IRS faq on the subject.

Another cool piece to this is that if you’ve already filed your 2009 tax return, you can amend that return and get your money now as opposed to waiting until you file your 2010 tax return.  Again, suweeet.

Thanks, Jason M. Blumer
