McHenry County Homes for First Time Home Buyers

April is upon us, and with April comes the looming deadline for the first time home buyer tax credit. However, there is still time to secure yourself a home and claim the $8,000 credit because you don’t have to close on a home by April 30th, just have to have a contract down. Some of the best options of new homes for first time home buyers lies just north of Chicago in McHenry County. Here you will find Liberty Trails, a new home community from Gerstad Builders that features homes priced from the $210’s.

Home shoppers have a choice of 11 different floorplans, both two-story and ranch plans are available. These McHenry new homes range in size from nearly 1,700 square feet to over 3,000 square feet with two to five bedrooms and two to three baths. To ensure that all buyer needs can be met at Liberty Trails, the floorplans offer some of the most popular features in the current housing market, like an open layout, master-on-main, two-story family rooms, loft areas, secondary bedrooms with walk-in closets, three-car garages and more. Basically, no matter what you are looking for in a new home, you are sure to find it at Liberty Trails.

Don’t hesitate in visiting this exceptional neighborhood that is nestled within a master-planned community and offers residents close proximity to schools, shopping and recreation. Remember, you need to have a contract down on a new home by April 30, 2010 in order to be eligible for the tax credit, and if you wait until the last week in April,  you may not have your contract signed by the 30th. The sooner you can visit the community, the better. For more information about Liberty Trails, call the on-site sales agent at 815-385-4495.
