Why should I buy a home now?
The reasons are as numerous as there are homeowners. And I am equally sure that you will have some of your own. So let me add just a couple more to your list.
1. You are busting at the seams in your current home.
2. Homes are cheaper today than they were a couple of years ago. This is true but this will not continue to happen at some point they will begin to rise.
3. Homes are a safer investment than the stock market. I know, I know, home prices have dropped but, stock prices are falling even faster.
4. Homes are a great tax shelter. As a homeowner you have the opportunity to write off the interest on your mortgage.
5. Real estate is finite. It is here today and it will be here tomorrow and one thing is fore sure, they ain't making anymore of it. So get you some today.
6. Some of your greatest memories were made in your childhood home. Start making some of your own memories today in your own home. Just think Christmas with the family gathered around the tree or that special Valentines Day meal.
7. Mortgage rates are still low. But they may not be that way forever.
8. Why RENT? Do you want to continue to pay someone else's mortgage and give them the tax advantages you are missing out on?
9. For 2009 there is a $8,000 tax credit for first time home buyers. Check with your tax advisor for other tax advantages for homeowners.
10. Did I Mention? Christmas and Thanksgiving dinner and other holiday meals taste better when prepared in your own kitchen with friends and family gathered around your table.
