You don’t own your home if you are forced to pay property taxes, you’re renting for 30+ years & you call it ownership but a house is a liability not an asset: • Mortgage Interest 7% x 30 • Property taxes 2% x 30 • Maintenance 1% x 30 • Insurance ?% x 30 The bank, govt & insurance companies are likely to make more money on you buying a house than you are! Don’t hate the messenger. GC
