No, it cannot. It can make it easier to pay for a home, but will not make it easier to purchase one. :-(
Buyer's credit is extended to finance the purchase of goods or services. A letter of credit guarantees that a payment will be received. If the buyer doesn't make a payment, the bank has to pay.
The practice of permitting a buyer to receive goods before payment
Buyers credit is financing provided to a buyer to pay for supply of goods or services usually by an exporting country or by the supplier company.
A DOCUMENTARY credit is frequently the agreed method of settlement for international trade. The buyer's bank reimburses the seller against presentation of documents drawn in compliance with conditions stipulated in the documentary credit by the buyer. There are advantages to both the buyer and seller when settlement is arranged by documentary letter of credit. First, the buyer knows that payment will only be made if the documents received comply strictly with the terms and conditions of the credit as stipulated by the buyer. Second, the seller knows that payment will be received provided the terms and conditions of the credit are strictly complied with.

As long as the deed will be in the buyer's name they will quailify for the credit. The credit is for anyone purchasing a home (for the first time. There isn't a financing requirement. So in theory if someone wanted to buy a home outright with all of their own funds, then they would still qualify for the credit. However, if the person is still unsure, they should check with their tax professional. In fact, I would put a stiuplation in the contract and/or mortgage that you are not guaranteeing that they will qualify for the first time home buyer tax credit. Because if for so reason they don't, you don't want them coming after you for the credit.
Supply Chain Finance (SCF) provides significant benefits for the buyer, its suppliers and the Funder. The supplier obtains invoice financing from the Funder at a favourable rate - this is because the Funder relies on the creditworthiness of the buyer and can provide the financing at a financing cost aligned with the credit risk of the buyer. This results in a lower cost of funding for the supplier and enhances the supplier's working capital, cash position and cost base. SCF also strengthens the relationship between the buyer and its suppliers - in particular, the buyer may be able to negotiate longer payment terms or price discounts with its suppliers and thereby improve its working capital position. The buyer also benefits from a stronger, more robust supply chain which improves reliability and certainty of supply for the buyer. For the Funder, SCF offers high quality transaction-based short term finance based on the credit of a prime buyer and supporting the business objectives of both trading parties.
A letter from a bank guaranteeing that a buyer's payment to a seller will be received on time and for the correct amount. In the event that the buyer is unable to make payment on the purchase, the bank will be required to cover the full or remaining amount of the purchase.
A financing arrangement under which an exporter extends credit to a foreign importer to finance his purchase. Usually the importer pays a portion of the contract value in cash and issues a Promissory note or accepts a draft as evidence of his obligation to pay the balance over a period of time. The exporter thus accepts a deferred payment from the importer, and may be able to obtain cash payment by discounting or selling the draft or promissory notes created with his bank. Compare with Buyer’s credit.
