We made our offer. We should hear soon. In related news we are eligible for the full $8000 federal tax credit and an $1800 Georgia tax credit for this purchase. Although I don't agree with this government subside in principal I will be taking the money and stimulating the local economy so I don't feel so bad. We are going to screen in the back porch and fence the property. The Man Cave will also be getting a new LED big screen. 
I did not think we were eligible because this is not my first home but the Federal definition of first time buyer is someone who hasn't owned a property in the last three years. I sold in the Fall of 2006 and have rented since. My wife is first time buyer, she wasn't on our first house.
