Homeownership Still A Priority For Most
The National Association of Home Builders recently conducted a survey and found the vast majority of Americans still consider a home to be a good investment.
The May 3-9 telephone survey found that 75 believe “that owning a home is the best long-term investment they can make and is worth the risk of ups and downs in the housing market.”
Survey feedback on home ownership was very positive….
- 95 percent of the home owners said they are happy with their decision to own a home
- Of non-homeowners, 73 percent said owning a home is one of their goals
- 80% of home owners would advise a close friend or family member just starting out to buy a home
