Real Estate Shines as an Investment in 2015:
A survey by The Joint Center of Housing Studies at Harvard University reveals that when a family is buying a home they consider the financial benefits of homeownership along with the social benefits. The survey mentions things like:
* Paying rent does not make sense
* Homeownership provides a good financial opportunity
* Owning a home helps you building family wealth
* Buying a home is investing in your retirement
* Home equity gives you something to borrow against
So how did homeownership match up against other investments in 2015? Here is a chart that compares its return on investment against precious metals and the stock market last year:
Bottom Line
Not only did homeownership offer all its social benefits. It also was a great investment financially. http://www.simplifyingthemarket.com/2016/01/05/real-estate-shines-as-an-investment-in-2015/?a=242769-4eb2112ad1caac540e99a63dd199d5ed ❤️ #share #mortgage
