Energy Star Home credit DesignSmith 10-27-2006

Is there anyway to claim the new Energy Star home credit as
an individual? I completely replaced my house with an Energy
Star certified modular home from Canada.

I finished it off with some help from a local builder.

The new home has twice the living space as before and still
uses less energy than the original house. Form 8908 is
written exclusive to general contractors. I can get much
smaller credits on the appliances, but the new house
structure is what I have spent the big bucks on.

Do I declare my sideline business to be a 1 home contractor?
