3 Ways You\u2019ll Win When You Buy a Home This Year<\/p><\/div>\n

There are so many great reasons to purchase a home, and over the past year, we\u2019ve realized more of them than we ever thought possible. If you\u2019re a first-time homebuyer, having a home of your own can give you a greater sense of security and accomplishment in a time that\u2019s largely uncertain. If you\u2019re a repeat buyer looking for your dream home, making a move might give you the space or features you need to find greater success and happiness in a new normal way of life. Whatever your motivations are, here are three reasons why becoming a homeowner now may help you win big in the long run.<\/p>\n

1. Buying a Home Is a Great Investment<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Several recent reports indicate that real estate is still a\u00a0good investment<\/a>, topping other options such as gold, stocks, bonds, and savings. Why? Real estate helps you build\u00a0equity<\/a>, a type of forced savings that grows your net worth. According to the latest\u00a0Equity Report<\/a>\u00a0from\u00a0ATTOM Data Solutions<\/em>:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe count of\u00a0equity-rich properties in the fourth quarter of 2020\u00a0<\/strong>represented 30.2 percent, or about\u00a0one in three, of the 59 million mortgaged homes in the United States.\u00a0<\/strong>That was up from 28.3 percent in the third quarter of 2020, 27.5 percent in the second quarter and 26.7 percent in the fourth quarter of 2019, despite the ongoing economic damage caused by the worldwide Coronavirus pandemic.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

2. Mortgage Interest Rates Are Low<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The\u00a0Primary Mortgage Market Survey<\/em><\/a>\u00a0from\u00a0Freddie Mac<\/em>\u00a0indicates interest rates for a 30-year mortgage have fallen since November 2018 when they hit 4.94%. In their latest\u00a0forecast<\/a>,\u00a0Freddie Mac<\/em>\u00a0expects rates to remain low, leveling out to\u00a0an average of 2.9% in 2021<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

When you purchase a home at a low mortgage rate, it will impact your monthly mortgage payment, giving you the opportunity to likely get more house for your money.<\/p>\n

3. Investing in Your Future Pays Off<\/strong><\/h4>\n

There are some renters who haven\u2019t purchased a home yet because they\u2019re uncomfortable taking on the obligation of a mortgage. What many renters don\u2019t realize, though, is the financial power of equity.<\/p>\n

As a homeowner, your monthly mortgage payment becomes a form of\u00a0\u2018forced savings\u2019<\/em>\u00a0you can reinvest later in life as you see fit. You can use it in a variety of ways, like to fund a loved one\u2019s education, move up to a bigger home, or start your own business. As a renter, you\u2019re actually growing your landlord\u2019s equity instead of your own.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re ready to put your monthly payments to work for you and take steps toward those dreams and goals, purchasing a home may be the way to go, especially as rental prices continue to\u00a0rise<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bottom Line<\/strong><\/h3>\n
