Downsizing or Purchasing? Regardless in Retirement Its Your Choice
During our golden age of retirement, we often think about how to better expand our money. After all, the objective is to last longer than our cash. One strategy for many is to simplify their living arrangements.
Downsizing often decreases expenses, and it provides a previously untapped retirement fund. For many in retirement the opportunity is especially effective because their home is paid for.
Cost Benefits of Purchasing a Smaller Home
For many retired persons a smaller home is practical. The kids have grown up and moved on, there is no longer a need for all those unattended to rooms. Its a wonderful way to reduce expenses on maintenance, cleaning supplies, utilities and the list goes on.
The tax benefits is what leads most if not all to home ownership, however with earnings reduced the need for a large tax right off is no longer. In fact many seniors are able to qualify for a tax reduction on their personal property taxes, through their local or state government. Downsizing your home allows many to downsize their way of life as a whole. A huge load off that allows persons in retirement to start living and enjoying themselves.

What if You Want a Bigger House?
Some retired persons aren't enthusiastic about downsizing: They want to "upgrade" their way of life. Perhaps you want the house large enough for your grandchildren to come stay over the summer. Some wait for retirement to finally get their dream home. If that is your style, Annapolis is still the community for you. Just across the way in the backdrops of Bestgate Road sites the diminutive community of Monticello. That's not to say it lacks anything in character. Monticello is a well thought out community of gorgeous single family 4 to 5 bedroom homes, beautiful landscape and a private pool and clubhouse. Who wouldn't want to be a resident at Monticello!
