Buying and owning a home can really have a big impact on your life

Of course there are plenty of financial reasons to become a homeowner, but it's also important to recognize the non-financial benefits that make a home more than just a place of living!

One BIG non-financial homeownerships benefit is “Having Control Over What You Do with Your Living Space” — as 94% of Fannie Mae survey respondents said that is a top reason to become a homeowner.

When you think about, your own home is truly your own space.

WHEN YOU BUY, you can decorate and change your home any way you would like to! You have the ultimate freedom to make small changes or even big renovations to make your home perfectly suit you, your family, and your lifestyle. Your home becomes uniquely yours and by buying, you give yourself the empowerment to tailor it to your individual style.

WHEN YOU RENT, you don't really have the freedom to make your place really feel like it’s your own. You're under strict rules and if you do make any modifications to a rental, you might have to change them back before you leave. It can be a hassle and opens up feelings of resentment.

When becoming a homeowner, there's no denying that the level of customization can really give you a sense of pride in where you live and makes you feel more connected to it 🏠
