Saving By Buying

Buying a home can seem costly when you consider down payment, closing costs, property taxes, and the cost of maintenance. Happily, the rewards of homeownership can significantly offset these perceived drawbacks. As the years pass and depending on the market, you'll be gaining equity-the part of the home you actually own. This contributes to your future borrowing power, enabling you to secure a loan or obtain a line of credit, which makes homeownership a wise investment. You'll also enjoy tax benefits because any payments made toward the principal balance are tax deductible. And depending on the loan you choose, your monthly payments will remain steady, unlike renting where monthly payments can increase at an annual rate of 5% or more. A home of your own also means you can make it your own-paint, floors, hardware, etc.-without having to change it back before moving out.
