no but you probably end up paying > $8000 less on price.
the tax credit "accelerated" prospective buyers to buy sooner than later
but failed to "stimulate" the housing mkt as evidenced by recent stats on
consecutive decline in prices and activities. in retrospect, gov't should
leave the mkt alone and let prices correct itself. recovery would come
when short sales and foreclosures are digested--let out the bad blood is
the only way to revival unfortunately...
