Your Money Pays My Bills, Thank You!

Yep, this is what your landlord is thinking!

Your landlord lets you pay his mortgage & expenses. So why not pay your own?

I love helping renters become owners, here's a sample of why:

 

RENTING VS OWNING

 

 

Renting definitely has its advantages in certain circumstances and points in your life. But for most at some point the benefits of homeownership are hard to ignore. Below are just some of the things you should consider before signing your next lease.

 

When You RENT

 

FINANCIAL

• No profit to be made at the end of your lease, you walk away no richer or poorer.

• No Tax benefits from renting.

• Any improvements to the home only benefits the landlord.

 

QUALITY OF LIFE

• No real sense of community or ownership.

• No ability to personalize your home.

 

• Pets are often not welcome in rentals.

 

When You BUY

 

FINANCIAL

• Build wealth thru home appreciation & loan reduction!

• Gain valuable tax benefits!

• Ability to tap into equity for child’s college, home repair or emergency!

 

QUALITY OF LIFE

• Freedom to renovate & decorate!

• Gain sense of community-On average homeowners are much more involved in the well-being of their community!

 

• Pride of ownership and lifestyle!

 

If you’re like many renters, you dream of owning a home. Homeownership comes with fantastic benefits —

total privacy, tax-deductible interest, and the build-up of home equity! It provides a financial foundation for your future!

But there are a number of reasons people don’t pursue buying a home: low income, bad credit, and lack of a down payment are just a few. But that doesn’t have to stop you.
