stop worring about the litlle programs... First time buyer doesn't always mean the best interest and term... get the best negoicated price you can find out there and buy your residence when the right property presents its self...

Unfotunately, you would not be considered a first-time home buyer. The definition of a first-time homebuyer is anyone who has not owned real estate within the last 3 years.

If you have not owned a real property is the past 3 years you are considered a first time home buyer for the special loan programs.
I've owned a vaca home in the past, but never a prim res. Can I still qualify as a first time buyer?
