Homeownership is a Good Investment for Qualified Buyers

For the majority of Americans, their home is their largest financial asset and a major player in their investment portfolio. The NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® estimates that home value rises, on average, by 4.5 percent a year.

That’s a steady return on investment; one’s own home is a much less volatile asset than stocks, bonds or mutual funds, even when the recent downturn is considered.
