A recent Harvard study found that there are behavioral factors that play a role in people's home buying decisions - as opposed to financial factors being the sole motivator. Here is a list of 15 benefits of home ownership that take both into account:
- Paying rent is not a good investment.
- Motivates you to become a better citizen and engage in important civic activities.
- More living space.
- A good place to raise children and provide them with good education.
- It's a good financial opportunity.
- You can select a community where people share your values.
- Symbol of success and achievement.
- Start building your family wealth.
- It's an investment in your retirement.
- Owning a home provides tax benefits.
- The landlord doesn't have the final say on pets.
- Gives you something you can borrow against if needed.
- It's a safe place to raise your family.
- You don't want to be told how you can decorate your home.
- It allows you to live in a nicer place.
