Why 87% off all homeowners know owning a home is a better investment than renting.

Home-ownership never was a question until the last couple of years with all the news of the late-2000s financial crisis (often called the Credit Crunch) or housing bubble. Roughly speaking, there are 74.5 million homeowners in the United States. Approximately 44.7 million have some type of mortgage and around 34.4 million are current and have equity in their homes, in addition, 30 million own their homes free and clear. 64.4 million homeowners cannot be wrong! Check out Rent Increases Make Home Ownership A Good Investment.

If you are considering buying or investing in foreclosures or just started shopping for foreclosed homes, bank owned or HUD homes you will need a Realtor with a lock-box key.  Use an exclusive buyer agent (EBA),  an agent or broker who represents only buyers of real estate. EBA firms never take listings and, therefore, never represent the seller in a real estate transaction.
