Tax credit expansion?

June 22, 2009 The tax credit is scheduled to expire in the fall and is now capped at $8,000. But some business groups say the cap should be raised to $15,000 and be applied to anyone who buys a home.

The tax credit sparked home sales in an otherwise dismal real estate market. First-time buyers make up a hefty 40-percent of home purchases right now.
