Why Buying is Right For You

• Why Buy?

  First and mostly, piece of mind, independence, and security. Financially, buying a home is saving all the rent, as well as owning an asset that most likely appreciates though time. Also, buying a home forms a financial warranty. This warranty helps when you need to borrow in the future.

  

  For 20 years, the yearly rent gradually increases while the yearly installments remain the same.

  Yearly rental is considered as 8% of home value. Home Finance Rate: 5.25% for a period of 20 years. Average yearly increase in rent is considered as 2.83%.
  The figures used are approximate.

• Are You Worried About Committing For Long?

  Buying a home is indeed a commitment for a long period, but it is a long-term saving, like the retirement or the children education plans, that can last for around 20 years. At the end of the finance, the reward is significant, and the feeling is indescribable when the home is completely yours!

  On the other side, renting, which is also a long-term commitment, never ends and you have to pay it your whole life!
