Here are some reasons why there has never been a better time to buy!</p> <ul> <li><strong>It’s a buyers market!</strong> Take advantage of low prices. New homes are currently a bargain and when the market improves your investment could even make you money!</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Interest rates are low!</strong> Low interest rates will let you save a significant amount on your mortgage</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Owning a home builds equity!</strong> Home equity is the difference between the value of the home and the amount still owed on the home. Once a person’s pays off their mortgage it is ideal that there is some home equity in the home.<br /> <span id="more-164"></span></li> <li><strong>Tax Deductions!</strong></li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Earn a tax credit of $7,500! </strong>First time buyers or those who have not owned a home in three years get a tax credit of $7,500 if they buy and close before December 31.</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Stop paying rent!</strong> If you have the money to buy but are still renting you may as well just be throwing your money away. You’re not gaining anything. Stop renting and start owning!</li> </ul> <p>Here are just some of the reasons why now is the time to buy and New West Realty offers a variety of home styles in various Chicago locations all at great prices. If you are still unsure or not financially ready to own, New West Realty also offers some great rent-to-own deals. This is a great way to take advantage of the great prices while helping you build your down payment.</p> <div class="sociable"> <div class="sociable_tagline"> <strong>Share and Enjoy:</strong> </div>
