Copper Conferencing Creates First-Time Home Buyer Program — Employees Take Advantage of Federal Tax Credit
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DENVER, CO, September 9, 2009 – Carolyn Bradfield, CEO of Copper Conferencing wants every one of her employees to experience the joy and advantages of owning their own homes. This week, Copper Conferencing, provider of web and audio conferencing services, initiated its own first time buyer program by offering no-interest loans to employees who buy a house that qualifies for the First-Time Home Buyer Federal Housing Tax Credit.
“Home ownership offers a significant level of personal satisfaction and there’s never been a better time in history to own your own home,” said Carolyn Bradfield, CEO of Copper Conferencing. “We have a great team of young people working at Copper and it has always been my goal to help them grow personally, as well as financially from their experiences working for the company.”
According to Chief Financial Officer, Christina Wafford, “The First-Time Home Buyer incentive from the Federal government is a tremendous opportunity for every employee to become a homeowner. The program offers a tax credit of up to $8,000 if they close on a house before December 1, 2009. As a company, what we are doing is to advance to each home buyer the tax incentive money as an up front, no interest loan so they can use that money as a down payment to buy their new home.”
Copper also brought in a group of local real estate professionals and loan brokers to work with employees and educate them on what it takes to buy a new home. Wafford added, “The Copper Conferencing program is really very simple. We loan our employees the tax incentive they will receive when they get their tax refund. They use that tax credit to pay off the loan from the company. I encourage other employers to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to help their employees achieve home ownership. With low interest rates, reduced housing prices, and the Federal Tax Credit, there is no time like the present. In the long run we’ll have better, more productive and loyal employees helping us to build a stronger business.”
