body>You might be able to put away some money while paying rent even though you don't have any equity in your rent. How does this figure? The only case where this would be a thing is if your rental payment is less than a mortgage payment would be for that property, which (especially these days) is not typical. It doesn't even make sense when you think about it: the landlord needs to pay *their* mortgage, plus costs for maintenance, plus profit. The primary barrier to buying is down payment and closing costs, which is why renting is only better if you're moving around a lot (more than once every 5 years or so).

titleWhy Own When You Could Rent? What???
bodyHave you really reconsidered all of the pros and cons of the two options? One thing is sure: you need a place to live in. While owning may be more beneficial for others, does it mean renting is less beneficial for you? Before you come to a conclusion, you really need to look at all the evidence compiled especially for you: Benefits Of Owning: 1. You are the landlord and can fully enjoy your property without limitations. Nobody tells you how to use your property; nobody tells you how many people can live in your property; nobody visits you to collect rental checks every month, and so you can enjoy total privacy; you can remodel the house the way you want it, too. 2. Your equity builds during the time of mortgage repayment, which means more money accrues in your wallet. 3. You can deduct certain expenses, like mortgage related costs, real estate taxes, costs of house improvements from your income taxes. 4. You can take advantage of the transfer tax waiver (=lower closing costs) or capital gain deferral (=lower income tax) when moving between houses, under certain circumstances. 5. You can lower your home expenses by applying for a variety of real estate discounts. 6. Once your mortgage is paid off, your monthly house expenses are further reduced. 7. Now, you have collected as much as 100% of your property's value. And this means you have a substantial legacy to leave your heirs. Benefits of Renting: 1. You can freely-enough use the property without having to maintain it. All the landscaping, snowplowing, roof fixing, appliance repairing etc. shifts to the owner. 2. You might be able to put away some money while paying rent even though you don't have any equity in your rent. 3. You don't have any substantial housekeeping related expenses. 4. Your moving flexibility gains high scores. You, under most circumstances, need only a month's notice to move out. 5. You might be qualified for rental assistance, under some circumstances. 6. You could buy a property for the cash you were saving while renting, which means your monthly expenses could be dramatically reduced. 7. And, you could, too, have the 100% ownership right to your property-something to pass to your heirs. Hopefully, you know where you stand now. Renting, as it turns out, is not really such a bad option…as long as you are in control of your finances. Unless at the end of the month you find yourself with few dollars put by, there are really high chances of you being able to acquire the full benefits of home ownership one day. But, if you hardly manage to save money on a regular basis, you might be better off with a mortgage that not only allows you to gain proprietary rights sooner but also to save money. You are saving money when building your equity, but you are not getting any return when paying your monthly rental fees. Imagine yourself acquiring a real property for approx. $120,000.00, which puts you, nowadays, in a 2-bed condominium, in some areas. You pay not more than $6,000.00 down at closing, plus some closing fees, and afterwards you pay only $1,200.00/month, taxes and association fees included.* Is it not what you are currently paying in your rent? Sure, at the end of the 30 year period you will have paid a little over $214,000.00 in total mortgage, but do you think the same condo will cost less than that in 30 years’ time? And, do you think you will have cash, 30 years from now, after having been paying $1,200 a month to your landlord? I know it is not going to be you; the only beneficiary in your rental situation is going to be the person you were paying the money all along. *The purchase price and monthly payments are based on the following criteria: LTV:95%; PMI:1%, APR:4.8%; Term of Loan: 30YRS; RE Taxes: $3,000.00; HOA fees; $250.00/month; Purchase Price: $119,391.00 https://nowekatleaderrealty.wordpress.com/2016/07/27/why-own-when-you-could-rent-what/

titleHANG YOUR HAT IN CHICAGO
bodyTake the plunge and hang your hat in Chicago! The third greatest U.S. metropolis labeled as Second City, one of the world’s first-class global financial centers (Forbes 2015) and America’s 25 best cities for job seekers (Glassdoor 2016), Chicago tops in commerce, education, arts and entertainment, and great assortment of cuisine. With the big business of telecommunications, financial services, engineering, publishing, food processing and infrastructure, Chicago has become, in 2016, the home to 27 Fortune 500 companies (Chicago Tribune), the second busiest U.S. airport-O’Hare, or the fifteenth best U. S. university-the Northwestern University (Forbes) on top of other prominent institutions as DePaul, Loyola, University of Chicago and University of Illinois, or one of the most affordable in state Northeastern Illinois University. The vibrant cultural scene will appease all sorts of tastes whether they build around arts, science, sports, music, or food and drink. The Museum of Modern Art, The Shedd Aquarium, the exciting games of Blackhawks, Cubs or the world known Chicago Bulls, the concerts in the Frank Gehry-designed pavilion at Millennium Park, or the Taste of Chicago Food Festival make just a sampling of how much more one can grasp. With the great housing options, one can choose to embrace the magnificent urban life downtown Chicago or to live it up in the vast stretch of airy space across the suburbs; be a part of older hoods like Oak Park or Evanston, which boasts the top class city center (Livability 2016), or the modern suburb life in Naperville, Aurora or Glenview; put down roots in a luxury lake-side mansion nearby a nationally-ranked school along the shores of north side Chicago, or make your home in a more affordable town like Prospect Hts, Addison or Burbank. With the median sales price of $208,600.00, in the first quarter of 2016 (NAR), Chicago became the third most affordable largest U.S. metropolis and, at the same time, secured the fifth place among the most desirable American cities for foreign investors (Forbes).

Having said that, I really doubt that the War on Drugs has been a failure only because it brought more bans.

titleWhy Owning a House Shouldn’t Scare You
bodyIt has been almost eight years since the recent housing crash, and though economy has gotten back on its tracks, many prospective buyers are staying off the housing market. No wonder they feel less motivated then ever to own their own place having heard all the sour stories of their friends or relatives who had lost their homes as a result of a short sale or foreclosure. Many friends of mine, too, found themselves in a similar situation, and this is why I completely understand what a stressful experience it is. You still remember how excited you were when you finally received the keys to the place you were hoping it to remain your permanent residence when, then, a couple of years later, you suddenly find yourself not being able to make ends meet…and, boom, you are delinquent on your mortgage payments. But, there are also many homeowners who survived the crash and who can share their rather optimistic and inspirational stories. Even though they really, really felt squeezed and depressed by the declining values of their properties and wished they could re-buy their houses at the low price others were buying at the time, which was not an option, it turned out the equity they had gained was so strong that the actual mortgage they had left to pay off was more or less equal to the values others were paying during the meltdown. And better yet, their time to repay the mortgage was a way shorter than that of the new buyers. Those who decided to keep their homes, then, were able not only to pay off their loans faster, or lower their payments through refinancing, if they wished to, but also to stay side by side with these new wave owners watching their properties’ values gain the upper levels in the home prices charts. Undeniably, there are times in history when home prices drop from time to time, however, that does not stop them from getting back on the feet and rise back again. House is a commodity, as much as gold or silver is, and, for this reason, its value will continually climb. As a matter of fact, home prices were going up since the beginning of 1970’s (see chart 1 https://nowekatleaderrealty.wordpress.com/2016/06/24/why-owning-a-house-shouldnt-scare-you/). Of course, there were a few exceptions when slight downturns occurred during the five recent recession times. And, evidently the latest downturn was the biggest up until now, but the positive news is it eventually transferred into the most remarkable gain in order to catch up with the pre-recession values. What is more, the way the real estate has been performing for so long, it only validates these values seem to be destined to continue rising as a matter of course. If you take a closer look into the latest recession and focus on the brutal drop in the home prices that picked up only three years after the recession ended, the chances are the majority of you envision those who had to give up their homes to prevail among all of the U. S. homeowners. Well, don't. Please, look at the date below. Though they examine only the percentage of the American society, as they depict the Illinois homeowners from the MRED (Midwest Real Estate Data) area to comprise 19 counties altogether*, you should be able to get an overall idea of the situation. According to the data from the beginning of recession in 2008 until June, 2016, beyond shadow of doubt, the highest number of distressed sales occurred in 2013-approximately twelve months after homeowners’ first delinquency as well as the super low performance in the traditional transactions. Yet, the 48,000 of peak short and REO sales combined is not such a distressing number when compared to the bottom 37,000 of traditional sales, especially when you keep in mind the number of many inactive homeowners retaining their homes and postponing their decision to sell until a more suitable time. You should also know that altogether in the period between January, 2008 and December, 2015 there was a total of 8,664,582 homes sold among which there were only 858,817 short sales and as much as 2,107,824 REO’s, as the MRED statistics point, which gives us an estimate of 34% of total distressed sales during the seven year period, during and after recession. True, there were almost 3 million people in the Chicago Metro Area who had no other option but to give up their homes, but shall we not cherish the addition of almost 9 million new homeowners? Should you still feel petrified of buying a home, you stick to the golden rule: stay within 30% of GMI (gross monthly income) to pay your mortgage and minimize the risk of being behind in your payments; take advantage of the low interest rates-this will guarantee not only lower payments, or quicker mortgage pay-off, but also a quicker equity build up to keep you among the strongest of them all; and, do not delay your decision to join the club-it really makes more sense to buy sooner than later with the home prices’ tendency to continually rise; the longer you wait, the more money you need. And remember: while “better late than never” suites you more, “better now than ever” will benefit you most. *MRED area: Boone County, Bureau County, Carroll County, Cook County, DeKalb County, DuPage County, Ford County, Grundy County, Iroquois County, Kane County, Kankakee County, Kendall County, Lake County, LaSalle County, Marshall County, McHenry County, Putnam Count, Whiteside County, Will County. https://nowekatleaderrealty.wordpress.com/2016/06/24/why-owning-a-house-shouldnt-scare-you/

bodyALL EYES ARE ON THE TOP 10 COUNTRIES WITH THE GREATEST NUMBER OF ACCUMULATED MEDALS. OF COURSE, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA OCCUPY THE FIRST PLACE IN THE CHARTS WITH THE 95 MEDALS COLLECTED.

RUSSIA CHASES NEXT, WITH A TOTAL OF 47 MEDALS, WHILE FRANCE AND GERMANY TIE AT SIXTH PLACE ( 32) RIGHT AFTER JAPAN (35). NEXT COME AUSTRALIA (27), ITALY (23) , KOREA ( 17) AND NETHERLANDS (15).

LET'S TAKE MALAYSIA, FOR EXAMPLE, WHO HAS 32 ATHLETES ONLY; OR UNITED ARAB EMIRATES WITH 13 ATHLETES.

titleWhy Own When You Could Rent? What???
bodyHave you really reconsidered all of the pros and cons of the two options? One thing is sure: you need a place to live in. While owning may be more beneficial for others, does it mean renting is less beneficial for you? Before you come to a conclusion, you really need to look at all the evidence compiled especially for you: Benefits Of Owning: 1. You are the landlord and can fully enjoy your property without limitations. Nobody tells you how to use your property; nobody tells you how many people can live in your property; nobody visits you to collect rental checks every month, and so you can enjoy total privacy; you can remodel the house the way you want it, too. 2. Your equity builds during the time of mortgage repayment, which means more money accrues in your wallet. 3. You can deduct certain expenses, like mortgage related costs, real estate taxes, costs of house improvements from your income taxes. 4. You can take advantage of the transfer tax waiver (=lower closing costs) or capital gain deferral (=lower income tax) when moving between houses, under certain circumstances. 5. You can lower your home expenses by applying for a variety of real estate discounts. 6. Once your mortgage is paid off, your monthly house expenses are further reduced. 7. Now, you have collected as much as 100% of your property's value. And this means you have a substantial legacy to leave your heirs. Benefits of Renting: 1. You can freely-enough use the property without having to maintain it. All the landscaping, snowplowing, roof fixing, appliance repairing etc. shifts to the owner. 2. You might be able to put away some money while paying rent even though you don't have any equity in your rent. 3. You don't have any substantial housekeeping related expenses. 4. Your moving flexibility gains high scores. You, under most circumstances, need only a month's notice to move out. 5. You might be qualified for rental assistance, under some circumstances. 6. You could buy a property for the cash you were saving while renting, which means your monthly expenses could be dramatically reduced. 7. And, you could, too, have the 100% ownership right to your property-something to pass to your heirs. Hopefully, you know where you stand now. Renting, as it turns out, is not really such a bad option…as long as you are in control of your finances. Unless at the end of the month you find yourself with few dollars put by, there are really high chances of you being able to acquire the full benefits of home ownership one day. But, if you hardly manage to save money on a regular basis, you might be better off with a mortgage that not only allows you to gain proprietary rights sooner but also to save money. You are saving money when building your equity, but you are not getting any return when paying your monthly rental fees. Imagine yourself acquiring a real property for approx. $120,000.00, which puts you, nowadays, in a 2-bed condominium, in some areas. You pay not more than $6,000.00 down at closing, plus some closing fees, and afterwards you pay only $1,200.00/month, taxes and association fees included.* Is it not what you are currently paying in your rent? Sure, at the end of the 30 year period you will have paid a little over $214,000.00 in total mortgage, but do you think the same condo will cost less than that in 30 years’ time? And, do you think you will have cash, 30 years from now, after having been paying $1,200 a month to your landlord? I know it is not going to be you; the only beneficiary in your rental situation is going to be the person you were paying the money all along. *The purchase price and monthly payments are based on the following criteria: LTV:95%; PMI:1%, APR:4.8%; Term of Loan: 30YRS; RE Taxes: $3,000.00; HOA fees; $250.00/month; Purchase Price: $119,391.00 https://nowekatleaderrealty.wordpress.com/2016/07/27/why-own-when-you-could-rent-what/

You pay not more than $6,000.00 down at closing, plus some closing fees, and afterwards you pay only $1,200.00/month, taxes and association fees included.* Is it not what you are currently paying in your rent? Sure, at the end of the 30 year period you will have paid a little over $214,000.00 in total mortgage, but do you think the same condo will cost less than that in 30 years’ time? And, do you think you will have cash, 30 years from now, after having been paying $1,200 a month to your landlord? I know it is not going to be you; the only beneficiary in your rental situation is going to be the person you were paying the money all along.\n\n*The purchase price and monthly payments are based on the following criteria:\n\nLTV:95%; PMI:1%, APR:4.8%; Term of Loan: 30YRS; RE Taxes: $3,000.00; HOA fees; $250.00/month; Purchase Price: $119,391.00\n\nhttps://nowekatleaderrealty.wordpress.com/2016/07/27/why-own-when-you-could-rent-what/",

titleHANG YOUR HAT IN CHIGO
bodyTake the plunge and hang your hat in Chicago! The third greatest U.S. metropolis labeled as Second City, one of the world’s first-class global financial centers (Forbes 2015) and America’s 25 best cities for job seekers (Glassdoor 2016), Chicago tops in commerce, education, arts and entertainment, and great assortment of cuisine. With the big business of telecommunications, financial services, engineering, publishing, food processing and infrastructure, Chicago has become, in 2016, the home to 27 Fortune 500 companies (Chicago Tribune), the second busiest U.S. airport-O’Hare, or the fifteenth best U. S. university-the Northwestern University (Forbes) on top of other prominent institutions as DePaul, Loyola, University of Chicago and University of Illinois, or one of the most affordable in state Northeastern Illinois University. The vibrant cultural scene will appease all sorts of tastes whether they build around arts, science, sports, music, or food and drink. The Museum of Modern Art, The Shedd Aquarium, the exciting games of Blackhawks, Cubs or the world known Chicago Bulls, the concerts in the Frank Gehry-designed pavilion at Millennium Park, or the Taste of Chicago Food Festival make just a sampling of how much more one can grasp. With the great housing options, one can choose to embrace the magnificent urban life downtown Chicago or to live it up in the vast stretch of airy space across the suburbs; be a part of older hoods like Oak Park or Evanston, which boasts the top class city center (Livability 2016), or the modern suburb life in Naperville, Aurora or Glenview; put down roots in a luxury lake-side mansion nearby a nationally-ranked school along the shores of north side Chicago, or make your home in a more affordable town like Prospect Hts, Addison or Burbank. With the median sales price of $208,600.00, in the first quarter of 2016 (NAR), Chicago became the third most affordable largest U.S. metropolis and, at the same time, secured the fifth place among the most desirable American cities for foreign investors (Forbes).
