5 Reasons it is Better to Buy than Rent

5 Reasons it is Better to Buy Than Rent

1. Equity.  You can't build equity in a rental property, but you can by owning it!
2. Tax Deduction.  Your rent payment is not tax deductible.  Contact your tax advisor to discuss deducting the interest portion of your mortgage payment
3. Fixed Payment.  Do you find your rent increases each time your lease is renewed?  With a fixed rate mortgage, the principle & interest payments never go up.
4. Pride.  An apartment can feel like only a place to stay, but a benefit of owning your home is the pride of your own home!
5. Additional Tax Benefits.  As part of owning a home versus renting, you may be eligible for tax credits for improvements and other tax incentives.
