Claudia S. Nelson Realtor with Keller Williams Realty, Woodbridge VA
I am so happy for my Dale City Woodbridge VA Home buyers. The buyers approached me stating they wanted to rent a home in Dale City. However after a day looking at rental properties in Dale City and after running into a landlord from hell they decided they wanted to purchase. This couple already owns a house and they just wanted to rent in this area, but then they realized that they don’t want a landlord to dictate what they can do and what they can not do. Their mortgage payment is even lower then what they would have spent on renting. Win -Win.
I am a big believer in being your own Landlord. Being your own landlord means so much, first and most important the mortgage payments you are making are accumulating wealth! Making a rental payment helps your landlord pay off his or her mortgage. Don’t get me wrong I love good tenants in my rental properties. But let’s be honest if you have good credit and you are planing to saying in this area for longer you should definitely consider buying. Don’t waste your money on rent.
Growing up in Switzerland, with mostly EVERYONE renting – over 70 % of Switzerland is renting. My parents had their home built just after I was born and still today live in the same home. They are the exception as they own a home. I keep telling my sisters to stop wasting their money on rent and to consider purchasing, but they have not yet bought into. Anyway there are so many more advantages of being a home owner and if you have the credit score I would be happy to talking to you and discussing all the advantages of homeownership.
If you are looking to purchase a home I would be happy to assist.
