Good morning Emily,

Yes, the $8,000 tax credit does go toward a condo purchase as well. If the condo sale price is less than $80,000, then you would receive 10% of the sale price as a tax credit. I would be happy to email you the information. I have some great Q&As regarding this topic. I can also send you information on the Maine State Housing Gift of Green $5,000 which you may also be eligible for.

Condos would be fine. However, there are buyer requirements and restrictions. Dunes posted a good link to the FAQ from the IRS. Another link is the actual form to claim the credit. It is easy to understand and outlines all the criteria.

Emily,

This link will tax you to the IRS site which explains the Tax Credit and has a Q&A section, plus you can view/download the Forms you will need to fill out to file.

I believe the response is Yes as the requirement is that it be your Full-Time Residence
