Why tour condos now?

Reason #1 - The First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit is Expiring!
The First-Time Home Buyer Tax Credit of $8,000 expires December 1, 2009. If you intend to take advantage of this great opportunity, you need to start shopping now.

The deadline for the tax credit is November 20, 2009 – which means your transaction must be complete by this date to qualify. Since this process takes time, it is in your best interest to start looking for your new condo today.

Here is an overview of the tax Credit:
$8,000 Home Buyer Tax Credit at a Glance: The information on this page pertains to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The tax credit is for first-time home buyers only. For the tax credit program, the IRS defines a first-time home buyer as someone who has not owned a principal residence during the three-year period prior to the purchase. The tax credit does not have to be repaid. The tax credit is equal to 10 percent of the home’s purchase price up to a maximum of $8,000.

The credit is available for homes purchased on or after January 1, 2009 and before December 1, 2009. Single taxpayers with incomes up to $75,000 and married couples with incomes up to $150,000 qualify for the full tax credit.*

One Main Street - Luxury Condos in Old Bellevue

If you are just learning about One Main Street, you might be wondering what all the fuss is about. Well, One Main Street is a new condominium building being constructed at 10,000 Main Street in Bellevue. The building has been designed to compliment the neighborhood - called Old Bellevue - which is what sets it apart from the competing projects in downtown Bellevue.

Main Street has a different vibe altogether. It's where the city began and the place where small, locally owned businesses dominate the landscape. It's a walker's haven filled with cafes, boutiques and flower shops creating a neighborly, small town feel. Downtown park is just a block north of Main Street and Meydenbauer Bay is about a block south. Bellevue Square is just beyond the park, so you still feel connected to the big time shopping that Bellevue is known for.

Topping out at 10 stories, the building is not like the high-rises found in downtown. It's much smaller with an average of only 8 homes on each floor. The intention is to keep the building personal – much like Main Street, where neighbors know each other and there's a real sense of community.

For more information on these luxury condominiums, visit our website or call one of our Sales Agents at (425) 452-6246. Or simply check back here to find out what's happening at One Main Street condominiums.
