There are many reasons why you should consider buying a home to experience the joys of home ownership. Here are just a few:
Privacy, security and stability. Homeownership gives you independence, creates safe feelings, and living in a neighborhood allows you and your family to build long lasting relationships in your community.
Equity and appreciation. When you own a home instead of renting, you build equity with each monthly payment, and historically, real estate values have increased over time.
Tax benefits. You can deduct your mortgage interest, your property taxes, and some of your closing costs.
Freedom to renovate. When you own the home, you’re free to decorate however you’d like and can make changes to fit your lifestyle.
The more you know about why you should buy a home, the less scary the entire process will seem, so talk to your REALTOR® for more information and advice.
