This leaves some consumers and builders concerned about how disputes will be resolved in the future. Better Business Bureau serving Central, Coastal and Southwest Texas’ dispute resolution service are available to serve the needs of consumers and businesses formerly with the TRCC. http://www.waco.bbb.org/article/bbb-offers-dispute-resolution-services-as-texas-residential-construction-commission-expires-12645 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 05:00:00 GMT Time is running out for first-time home buyers to take advantage of the up to $8,000 tax credit set aside this year as part of the economic recovery effort. Barring a time extension, consumers looking to cash in must purchase a home by November 30th, 2009. Considering it usually takes 30 days to close on a house, now may be the time to act and Better Business Bureau offers guidance on how to benefit from the First-Time Home Buyers Tax Credit. http://www.waco.bbb.org/article/first-time-home-buyers-tax-credit-set-to-expire-next-month-13074
