The tax credit applies to the purchase of the home and property, nothing more. It's a 10% tax credit up to a maximum of $8,000. What steps you have to take to renovate the property to live there is your expense. Good luck and enjoy the house!

No, the only thing you will be able to claim is the purchase price for the trailer, not moving it, not setting up, not the landscape, etc. Only 10% of the actual trailer costs, up to 8k.

you can never claim anything for septic-well-landscaping
not even sure if the credit is good for mobile homes
if it is – it’s only good on the purchase price of the home. period.

The credit is for 10% of the purchase price of the home. No moving costs allowed

The home buyer tax credit applies to your income taxes, not your expenses. The purchase of a mobile home will qualify you for the tax credit if purchased before 4/30/2010
