People often rent, due to them feeling they are not ready for the added responsibilities of buying a home.  Some of these responsibilities may be the maintenance, maintenance cost, insurance, or even the initial down payment. Buying a home is a long-term investment and should not be taken lightly.  There are necessary steps you should take before buying a home, to gauge your readiness.  Once you have determined you are ready to buy a home, you will find there are many benefits that accompany home ownership.

It is Cheaper to BUY then to RENT!

In a study by Forbes Magazine, it was found that buying is now 45% cheaper then renting in the 100 largest U.S. metro areas. That leaves you with an average savings of $771 per month!

Make the House Fit You!

When you buy a home, particularly a brand new home, you are able to make the house fit you, rather than you fitting the house. You can choose the floor plan, color scheme, and details of your home that fit your families taste and needs.  You can also feel comfortable that you will be able to do any updates and remodeling in the future, without first seeking the permission of the landlord or property owner.

Tax Advantages!

There are tax advantages to purchasing a home.  Interest paid on an owner-occupied home is tax deductible.  You may also be eligible for other tax deductions based on different environmental features of your home, etc. It is important to discuss this with your tax specialist to ensure you receive all of the savings allotted to you through the purchase of your new home.

All in all, buying is better than renting because at the end of the day… its YOURS! You have made an investment in something that is your very own.  The feeling of ownership is incomparable.

Don’t forget to take a look at what could be YOUR future home!

Owning a home has many tax benefits and talking with an accountant or a tax specialist can help you unravel the mysteries and maximize your tax advantages.

Here are some of the advantages of home ownership from a tax standpoint:

• Offset Exemptions – The benefits do not just take place in April when the return comes in. Owning a home can actually allow a home owner to offset exemptions and have more take home pay throughout the year.
• Take Advantage of Mortgage Deductions – According to research by USA Today based on data from the IRS, only 26 % of Americans take advantage of deducting the interest paid on their mortgage over the course of the year. The average deduction can save home owners more than $12,000 per year in some states.  See IRS publication 936.

• Itemized Deduction Change – This is the biggest change for homeowners.  In past years where standardized deductions may have applied, now Schedule A will be used to itemize deductions such as mortgage interest, property taxes, points paid on a home loan, mortgage insurance, and charitable donations.

As of January 1, 2012 mortgage insurance premium deductions and home energy improvement credits were allowed to expire along with 57 other tax code benefits. These two tax benefits were restored for home owners when the American Tax Relief  Act of 2012 was signed into law January 1, 2013 by the President.

• Mortgage Insurance Premiums Deduction – Often lenders require insurance if the mortgage covers more than 78 % of the home’s value, but this insurance is deductible and remains deductible through the Tax Relief Act.

• Home Improvement Credit for Energy Efficiency – If improvements are made on the home to increase energy efficiency such as new energy efficient windows, insulation, roof, water heater, or heating and cooling systems, then home owners can receive 10 % of the cost up to $500 in tax credits.

Talking with a tax specialist is important to make sure that you are receiving all the exemptions and benefits of being a home owner.

A kitchen is the heart of a home! This is true all across the world. The old saying that the “stomach is the way to the heart” carries a lot of truth.   Kitchens are where we spend much of our time and most of that is with our family and friends! Many people want open floor plans and spacious kitchens for entertaining in today’s society.  They tend to be a major focal point of today’s homes. You tend to use your kitchen daily and your house guests will experience it during most visits. Up-to-date kitchens are important and not just fresh paint in a re-sale home. In fact, the kitchen for many buyers can be a deal maker or a deal breaker.  Kitchens, however, can be one of the most expensive rooms to renovate with new flooring, tiling, cabinets, appliances, plumbing, and counters.

Hunter Homes sells new and up to date homes with a kitchen that is ready to use the day of move-in.  The kitchens typically offer amazing amenities such as granite counter tops, tile back splashes, stunning cabinets, tile or hardwood floors,  new energy star appliances and much more!  Visit our website to visit a fully furnished model home, view our inventory or select your dream homesite to build your new home.
