Tip of the hat :cap: to Halladay's performance today .... :clap:

Enough with the doom and gloom about homeownership. WSJ article below explains why owning a home is a good thing. I agree especially if you know you will live there at least 3+ years ....

1) You can get a good deal
2) Mortgages are cheap
3) Tax savings
4) It'll be yours
5) You'll get a better home
6) Inflation protection
7) It's risk capital
8) It's forced savings
9) Lots to choose from
10) Eventually market will clear

What are your reasons ... good or bad?
