Reasons to Buy A New Home

I just read an article on 3 reasons not to buy a new home now. By the time I finished reading the writer must have mentioned 20 reasons not to buy a home now or ever for that matter.

The only thing I agreed with was you should only buy a new home when you can afford it. This is true with anything you purchase. You need to know the expenses there are in owning a new home.

One of the things she mentioned was its good to rent. For the most part no extra expanses. That's true, but who benefits, the landlord who owns the property. You are helping him pay his mortgage and he is building equity in his property. Just like leasing a car you make payments for 3 years, driving a new car but at the end of the 3 years you would have paid  out a lot of money and you don't have a car.

So here is what I think, my own personal opinion whatever its worth. If you can afford it, buy a new home now. There are expenses in owing a new home. But the bottom line is that this home is yours.You should do it. Homes prices are low, mortgage rates are low. Now is a great time. But remember this is for the long term. You do get a $8,000 tax credit if you buy before Dec. 2009 and most people will get that credit. Plus you can get some tax deductions for interest payments. As I mentioned buying for the long term your property value will rise. You are building equity in your home not someone else.

With all the homes on the market and coming on the market because of bank owned, preforclosure and short sales, there are some great homes available. Remember good homes do not stay on the market very long. Please don't settle for a home in bad condition. I know you can find a good home at a good price

 We should never loss focus of the fact owning a new home is The American Dream. Think about this, you go to school. Most go to college, you meet that special someone, get married, have a bunch of kids and live in your first dream home. There is nothing wrong with that picture. Just make sure you can afford it. And if you can not afford to buy right now save. I know you can do it.

I will help you find your Dream Home in Delray Beach, Highland Beach and Boca Raton   I can help anyone buying a new home of selling there present home, please feel free to e-mail me and please check out my website www.delraybeachprimeproperties.com

Delray Beach Real Estate

I am big on Delray Beach Florida. I live here , work here and for that matter I do just about everything here. Did I mention I sell Real Estate here in Delray Beach.

I moved to Florida in1992 from Connecticut. Started out in Boynton Beach and for over 12 years I have lived here in Delray Beach.

I have had the pleasure of seeing this little sleepy town where snowbirds would come in the winter months and would stay 3 to 4 months at a time. Now this great Village By The Sea is thriving 10 months a years with a ton of activity. Believe me there is no ression on Atlantic Avenue

Coming East on Atlantic Avennue from I-95 past the International Tennis Center a little further East past the Old School Square Cultural Center. Past great restaurants, art galleries, Botiques, along tree lined Atlantic Avenue over the Intracoastal Bridge to the Beach and The Atlantic Ocean. to me Atlantic Avenue in Main Street USA.

From trendy Atlantic Avenue to Pineapple Grove Arts District This is truly a predestrian freindy town. Take a strool and do some window shopping of stop into one of the great restaurants Delray has to offer.  And enjoy Delrays nightlife. 

With great events on the Old School Square Property, located on the North East corner of Atlantic Avenue. They feature great events like the Garlic Festival, Cinco de Mayo, Holiday Festivities that include a 100ft Christmas Tree, and First Night activities. Along Atlantic Avenue they have the Delray Affair which draws over 600 venders from all of the Country. Art and Jazz on the Avenue. July 4th all day Celebration with a great display of fireworks.

Delray has a great deal to offer from beautiful condos, townhome and Single famliy homes on the Ocean or enjoy boating on the Intracoastal and the Atlantic Ocean. Coummunities feature Golf and Tennis.

Delray Beach is a great place to have fun in the sun and enjoy life for people of all ages.
