Buying a home is a big decision, but without a doubt, owning a home can improve your quality of life, provide stability and give you a sense of control you just can't get from renting. The financial and emotional stakes are high, but the rewards can make it all worth it. I suggest looking for a home you can stay in long-term; one that will “grow” with your family and needs.
Benefits of home ownership include:
Financial investment:
Your monthly mortgage payment creates equity for you, not your landlord.
The interest on your mortgage is a tax deduction:
While this isn't a reason in itself to buy a home, it's nice to get a break at tax time.
Fixed monthly housing payment:
If you opt for a fixed-rate mortgage, the monthly rate of your mortgage won't change for the length of the term.
Tax-free gain:
When it's time to sell your home, you don’t pay taxes on the proceeds of the sale that are above what you paid (there are some restrictions).
