Here are a few good reasons:

1. Consistent returns. Over the long term, real estate has shown a consistent growth in value, even when some other investment choices were less stable.


2. Forced savings. Contributing towards a mortgage automatically forces a family to save. Rather than paying rent, these monthly payments contribute to future security.


3. Appreciation. Between 30 to 100 percent in the last five years.


4. Tax-free profits. When your home is your principal residence, and you sell it, you will not pay tax on any of the profits.


5. Equity increase. The difference between what is outstanding on your mortgage and what your home is valued at, is your earned equity. You could use this equity to obtain additional financing, obtain a second mortgage, or move-up to a larger home


6. In recent years land purchase has proven to be a better investment than stocks and bonds because of its continuous rise in market value as well as its tangible value.

Real estate is still a viable investment that offers excellent returns and security. Over the long term, there are few downturns. Your return could be substantial. Properly cared for property will almost always appreciate in value.
