Celebrate National Homeowner Month with American Legend Homes

June is National Homeowner Month and is an opportunity to celebrate the value that owning a home brings to families and communities. Being a homeowner means investing in your future and creating a space that fits your specific lifestyle.

What are some of the long-term specific benefits of owning your own home?

Most homeowners consider homeownership their single best long-term investment: According to Forbes magazine, “every payment you make increases your equity. Homeowners have a net worth that is more than 40 times greater than their renter counterparts, which reinforces the idea that owning a home is a smart financial move… Once the home is purchased you build equity through forced savings and now you are an investor.”

Homeownership builds a solid foundation for families: Habitat for Humanity says that “Academic research and surveys point to one inescapable conclusion: that owning one’s home enhances quality of life in a variety of specific, verifiable ways.”

Homeownership provides a sense of community: According to FreddieMac,  “Homeownership plays a vital role in helping to build strong, stable communities. In addition to it bolstering your community's treasury through taxes, research shows the many social benefits it provides, including increased volunteerism, improved health, and less crime.”
