Via GITA BANTWAL, REALTOR,ABR,CRS,SRES,GRI BUCKS COUNTY & Philadelphia, PA HOMES (RE/MAX Centre Realtors):

Owning a home has always been  the American Dream.

The recession and bursting of the housing bubble has caused concern among home buyers. Many are sitting on the fence. Maybe it is time to get off the fence and realize your dream of home ownership.

If you are one of those worried about prices declining further you should consider the following :

Prices are low and rates are low. If you talk to your accountant and find out what the mortgage interest deduction and deduction for real estate taxes will do for you, you may find it is cheaper to own than to rent in many areas.

When prices decline investors rush to buy properties.  They hold on to these properties because they expect the values to increase. In the meantime they rent them out. Demand for rentals goes up when fewer owner occupant properties are sold.  As demand  for rentals goes up so do the rents.

If you own your own home, and get a fixed rate mortgage, your prinicipal and interest payments are constant. The taxes and insurance usually go up, but guess what ? Landlords also add this to the rental increase if you are renting..

Please note that real estate is local and a good agent can show you the rent vs buy analysis .
