There’s a silver lining for would-be home buyers who missed the April 30 deadline for the $8,000 federal tax credit: Sellers are dropping prices.

The average price reduction for a single-family home or condominium in the Bay State last month was 8 percent, or $38,883 off the original asking price, according to real estate search engine Trulia.com.

In Suffolk County, which includes the cities of Boston, Chelsea, Revere and Winthrop, the price reduction was $43,288, or 7 percent off the listing price.

Т.е. субсидия в 8000 долларов стоит покупателям примерно 40К увеличения в цене. Это, заметим, 2010 - т.е. падения в цене не связаны с кризисом и т.п., там всё, что могло упасть, давно упало.

Хорошо ещё если 20% down, а если там 5% или вообще 2%? Вот где настоящая рулетка-то начинается.
