The decision to buy -- is it the right one for you?
Today, condo buyers have more choices than ever before. You can choose financing options that are flexible and affordable, condo styles that fit a variety of lifestyles and professional services that make the condo buying process fast, effective and enjoyable.
When you begin the decision-making process of buying your first home, your MyCondoNetwork Sales Representative can guide you through the pros and cons of renting vs. buying. A simple evaluation can help you decide if you are financially and personally ready to make the investment of ownership.
Here are some facts about ownership that may surprise you:
- Ownership can be a good investment opportunity. A house offers leverage and the possibility for appreciation in value. And, you can use this investment while it's working for you!
- You can't afford to overlook the tax breaks of Ownership. Since mortgage interest and property taxes are tax deductible, ownership can save you money each year.
- Young people aren't priced out of the market. Figures from the National Association of Realtors put the average age of first-time buyers at 32 years old. Ask your MyCondoNetwork Sales Representative about the number and variety of financing options available.
- Renting doesn't protect you against rising prices. Rental units are just as susceptible as condo's to increases in taxes, insurance, utilities and other costs. Landlords will pass along these increases to the tenants.
- The waiting game is a losing game. Don't put off buying a condo waiting for prices to come down. For example, from 1984 to 1994, the median price of existing condos increased from $89,400 to $145,400 -- a total increase of 61 percent.
