Reasons for military families to own a home

V3-combo-Black-Background-1

01

Tax Breaks

The U.S. Tax Code lets you deduct the interest you pay on your mortgage, your property taxes, as well as some of the costs involved in buying your home.

02

Equity

Money paid for rent is money that you’ll never see again, but mortgage payments let you build equity ownership interest in your home.

03

Savings

Building equity in your home is a ready-made savings plan. And when you sell, you can generally take up to $250,000 ($500,000 for a married couple) as a gain without owing any federal income tax.

04

Predictability

Unlike rent, your fixed-mortgage payments don’t rise over the years so your housing costs may actually decline as you own the home longer. However, keep in mind that property taxes and insurance costs will increase.

05

Freedom

The home is yours. You can decorate any way you want and benefit from your investment for as long as you own the home.

06

Appreciation

Real estate has long-term, stable growth in value. While year-to-year fluctuations are normal, median existing- home sale prices have increased on average 6.5 percent ...

07

Stability

Remaining in one neighborhood for several years gives you a chance to participate in community activities, establish lasting friendships, and benefit from educational opportunities.
