MEMPHIS, TN - A nationwide drive to sell homes before April 30th is on, in order to qualify for an $8,000 tax credit. Jerry Modesto has been selling homes for 12 years. With low prices and even lower interest rates, he expects potential buyers to take full advantage of the opportunities. "When you put all that together things are looking, I think things are looking very well."
One thing that's not looking so well is the pool of potential home buyers. Another problem is keeping people in those homes. In Memphis, the foreclosure rate for February grew to 2.09 percent.

HUNTSVILLE, AL (WAFF) - Thousands of realtors across the country held open houses this weekend.
It was part of an effort to encourage people to take advantage of two homebuyer tax credits that are set to expire at the end of the month.
Realtors say now is a great time to buy, not only because of these tax credits, but also because interest rates are pretty low right now, but won't stay that way for long.
Buying a home is often the most expensive purchase a person will ever make -- that's why many people, like Renae Bishop, are scrambling to find their perfect home before some tax credits being offered by the federal government run out.
"There's a lot of good things out there," Bishop said. "It just depends on w...
