Monday Morning Motivation
Started my Team Meeting and Monday Morning with this quote that I think speaks volumes. Our plan didn’t quite work last year, so we changed it and so far, we have seen great results. Here is to another week of GREAT SUCCESS!!
Should I Rent or Should I Buy?
Buying vs. Renting Comparison
The chart below shows a cost comparison for a renter and a homeowner over a seven year period.
The renter starts out paying $800 per month with annual increases of 5% The homeowner purchases a home for $110,000 and pays a monthly mortgage of $1,000.
After 6 years, the homeowner’s payment is lower than the renter’s monthly payment.
With the tax savings of homeownership, the homeowner’s payment is less than the rental payment after 3 years

Ringing & Singing…Brandon Patton
Well, I choose Brandon Patton because we both list HUD homes. Brandon was a bit shocked by my call because he doesn’t even recall having a profile on activerain muchless blogging. He is the designated broker with six realtors under him. He has been in real estate for five years. Perhaps my call will spark his interest in activerain.
