Why pay rent when you can own? 

If you took out a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage for $280,000 and made monthly mortgage payments of $1,503 per month…

• You’d pay $541,116 in mortgage and interest payments over the life of the loan.

•  After 30 years you’d own a home with an appreciated value potential of $849,541 (at 3% annual appreciation).

•  Keep in mind:  Appreciate rates vary greatly based on local market conditions.

Compare that to paying $1,500 per month in rent over 30 years.

• Even if your landlord never raised rent (not likely), you would still spend $540,000 and own nothing!

RSVP REQUIRED.
