Welcome homeowners! There are many pros and cons to homeownership so we know you didn't take the decision to buy lightly.
There are many benefits to owning your own home. The biggest ones are financial of course. This is an investment that will grow over time where rent once paid is money that is gone forever. Many homeowners enjoy the benefit of being able to write off a portion of mortgage payments on their taxes each year.
Of course there are also expenses that only homeowners have to pay for as well. Maintenance and structural damage during a disaster are the responsibility of the property owner. While most landlords build these anticipated expenses into the rent, it is not something that renters have to come up with on a moments notice when something goes wrong.
Perhaps the biggest perk of home ownership is control. Your payments are steady where renters can see rate changes each time the lease needs to be renewed, or even may not be allowed to be renew forcing the renter to move. You control who does the maintenance work on your home and when as well as how much is done where landlords may choose less desirable options than the resident would prefer.
When deciding whether to rent or own your home, keep in mind the general rule of thumb. If you plan to live in the same area for 5 or more years buying a home is a good investment. If you are planning to stay there less time, renting may be the better option.
