Can you afford to buy a house?

Are you thinking about buying your first house?

Here are the demographics of the typical first time home buyer. Are you one of them?

 

If you’re renting, you’re essentially paying someone ELSE’s mortgage. When THEY sell the property, all of the rental payments you’ve been making will be in THEIR pocket, not yours.

Home ownership forces you to save money, in the form of equity in your home, rather than give it to someone else to save as their own equity.

Since you’re paying for housing whether you rent or own, you might as well be building your own equity!
