Might you qualify as a "First Time" homebuyer?

Surprisingly, even if you've owned a home before, you might still qualify for first time home buyer benefits. What? Yup, I'm not pulling your leg... Fannie Mae defines first time homebuyer this way: a mortgage loan applicant who fits all of the following three descriptions:
