If you're contemplating buying your first home, do you find yourself continually tom between the pros and cons of home ownership, ready to take the plunge one day and getting "cola feet" the next? Admittedly, owning a home is not for everyone, ■ and you must consider your personal needs very carefully carefully before taking on this large responsibility. But home ownership is, without a doubt, one of the wisest long-term investments you can make - and one of the best ways to provide for your financial well-being. If you feel like you're experiencing experiencing the proverbial "to-buy-or-not-to-buy syndrome," syndrome," maybe you question the true benefits of home ownership and you wonder if the sacrifices you'll have to make are really worth it. If you're like many people, people, you may even think there are better investments than owning a house, and your best bet is to continue renting and invest your money elsewhere. You may be surprised to learn, however, however, that over the long term, one of the best ways to achieve financial security is through home ownership. One of the easiest ways to evaluate your decision to buy is to ask yourself, "If all else were equal, would I rather rent or own my home?" It's safe to say that most of us would opt for home ownership. Your' decision to buy should also include a thorough thorough assessment of your financial financial situation and how well you manage your money. money. You should realize too, that a house, in essence, forces you to save. Each mortgage payment buys you a larger portion of an appreciating appreciating investment. When you've paid off the mortgage, you're left with a sizeable asset. And along the way, you and your family will enjoy enjoy many years of shelter, security and the shared joys only a home can provide. Other Factors , There are two additional and related factors that make home ownership financially financially attractive in comparison comparison to other investments: investments: leverage and capital gains exemption. When a relatively small' amount of your money controls controls a much larger asset, it's called leverage. For 25 per cent, 15 per cent or as little as 10 per cent down, your hard-earned cash can be used to acquire a house worth tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. The more you are "leveraged," the greater the financial return return on your initial investment investment (down payment) as the value of your house increases. increases. For example, let's say you buy a house for $100,000, with a down payment of $15,000. You house then rises rises three per cent in value for a $3,000 gain, giving you a return of 20 per cent on your initial investment ($3,000 divided by $15,000 = 20 per cent). In real estate, leveraging leveraging is a powerful way to make your money work for your. Few other investments can be purchased with only 10 to 30 per cent of your own money! The increase in a home's value is called a capital gain. When the value of most investments such as stock or term deposits increases, increases, you pay tax on the capital gain. However, the government allows Canadian Canadian taxpayers to be exempted from paying capital gains tax when their principal residence residence increases in value. For example, if you live in a home that increases in value by $50,000 over 10 years, you pay no tax on the $50,000 capital gains when you sell. ,:n. 214 King St. East, Bowmanville 623-4445 eel van 85 King St. West, Newcastle 987-4733 Ajax/Toronto 686-0477 The Small Company that is Big on Service" REALTY LTD.
