New Widget: Do You Qualify for $8,000 First-Time Home Buyer Tax Credit?

No doubt that it’s a buyer’s market.  Home values have taken a hit in most markets throughout the nation and mortgage rates are relatively low. Plus, the government has offered up an $8,000 first-time home buyer tax credit , further sweetening the pot for any first-time home buyer out there. The $8,000 tax credit has been a source of confusion by those who might be eligible, but aren’t quite sure if they fully meet the criteria.

NEW: Single Home Value Widget

NEW: Single Home Value Widget

A home valuation lookup has been the most common implementation of the Zillow API over the past few years; take a look at Yahoo!

However, we realize not everyone has the technical resources to complete this type of custom integration. As a result, we’ve built a brand new single home value widget that adds this functionality to your website with a widget that can be copied and pasted onto your site. You can choose either the iframe version (should work on most sites) or a script version. The widget is available in two sizes — 300 x 445 pixels (screenshot to right) or 160 x 410.
