Hi samelio,
Your brother-in-law will be considered as a first time home buyer only if he did not owned a property for the past 3 years. If he satisfies this criteria, he will be able to declare himself as a first time home buyer. If he is presently an owner of the property and the property sells off, then he will have to claim the sale of the house on this years' taxes.
