Renting vs. Owning a Home

• The decision you make as to where you will live is one of the BIGGEST in your life. Most people don’t understand that a home can be an INVESTMENT• If you RENT a house, each monthly rent

payment is “out the door”• If you BUY a home, each monthly payment

increases your Equity • Defn. Equity- a home’s market value less

the outstanding mortgage balance1-1 Personal Financial Decisions

Page 5: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

Credit report and credit rating

A credit report

• details an individuals credit history including payments related to bills, loans, credit accounts and bankruptcies.– It determines your

credit worthiness

A credit rating

• is a ranking expressed as a number or letter based on your credit history used by the financial institution for the loan or credit approval– The higher (lower) the

credit rating the better chance you have of getting a loan (of getting rejected) and having a low interest rate (high rate of interest). Slide 5

Page 6: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

The Investment Advantage

• Mortgage – is a loan for a home and is a very expensive purchase

• At first, most of your payment will go towards interest– But over time, more of your payment will

pay off the debt

• Down payment (3.5% to 20%)

• Loan length (15 or 30 years)

Slide 6

Page 7: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

Increasing Your Wealth

• As you pay off the debt, your equity increases, earning you more wealth– If your property value increases, that also

earns you more wealth

• www.zillow.com– Let’s check out some property values!

• With a house, you will own something that is going up in value, or appreciating.

Slide 7

Page 8: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

APR Annual Percentage rate

• Yearly rate if interest calculated by multiplying the monthly interest rate by 12 (number of months in a year)

Market Value

• Market value is the highest price that property will bring on the open market.

Slide 10

Page 11: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

Tax Advantages

• The government promotes home ownership through the tax law– Every year, you can reduce your taxes by

deducting the following• The interest you pay on your mortgage• The taxes you pay from owning your home

(property taxes, etc)

– Because these will save you money every year on your taxes, it makes owning a better option than renting!

Slide 11

Page 12: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

Affording a House

• How much house can you afford?– The general rule of thumb is that you

spend NO MORE THAN 30% of your monthly income on housing

• Because you need to save money for food, insurance, emergencies, and all the other things that happen in life!

– If you made $24,000 per year, how much per month could you afford?

Slide 12

Page 13: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

Down Payments

• Banks don’t just loan money to any person that walks in off the street– A down payment is the amount of money

that you pay at the closing (time of the sale) from your own funds.

– It is usually 20% of the purchase price– This helps the bank understand that you

are serious about repaying your mortgage over time

Page 15: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

Transaction Costs of Purchasing a Home

• Closing costs– Loan application fee—from $100–$500– Points: a fee charged by the lender when

a mortgage loan is provided; stated as a percentage of the purchase price

– Loan origination fee—about 1% of the mortgage amount

– Appraisal fee—from $200–$500– Title search and insurance– Pre-payment penalties

Slide 15

Page 16: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

Types of Mortgages

• Fixed Rate Mortgage– Interest rate and monthly payment will not

change. You are locked in over the life of the loan

• Adjustable/Variable Rate Mortgage– Interest rate changes every 12 months or

over the course of the loan

• Balloon Mortgages– Low interest rates for about 5 to 7 years,

culminating in a large final payment Slide 16

sources of used cars

teens – lesson 9 - slide 9-E

new-car dealers provide quality used vehicles; service department available; higher prices than other sources

used-car dealers specialize in previously owned vehicles; limited warranty (if any); vehicles may be in poor condition

private parties may be a good buy if vehicle was well maintained; few consumer protection regulations apply to private party sales

other sources such as auctions or sales by government agencies, auto rental companies, and on the Internet; most of these vehicles have been driven many miles

Page 28: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

consumer decision making

deciding to spend your money:

• Do I really need this item?

• Is it worth the time I spend making the money to buy it?

• Is there a better use for my money right now?

deciding on the right purchase:

• What level of quality do I want (low, medium, or high)?

• What level of quality do I need?

• What types of services and repairs does the dealer offer?

• Should I wait until there is a sale on the type of car I want?

• Should I buy a new or a used car?

• If I buy a used car, should I buy it from a dealer or from a private party?

• Should I choose a car with a well-known name even if it costs more?

• Do I know anyone who owns the type of car I want?

• Are the warranty and the service contracts on the car comparable with warranties and

service contracts on similar cars?

• What do consumer magazines say about the type of car I want?teens – lesson 9 - slide 9-C

Page 29: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

What conclusions can you make?

• If you buy a $35,000 car and take a six-year loan at a rate of 7.9%, you will end up paying over $9,000 in interest on the car, making the total cost of the car $44,000.

Auto Loans: Lease vs. Purchase Handout Scenario 2

You want to lease a $25,000 car for 48 months. You will not make a down payment. You must pay a $500 security deposit on the car before you leave the dealership. There is an additional fee of $250 for the cost of completing the dealer lease paperwork. Your total monthly lease payment is $383 per month. In your lease agreement, it has been determined that the value of the car will be $14,000 at the end of the lease term. You are allowed 12,000 miles per year for the car, and the mileage fee for overages is $.25 per mile. You pay $68 per month for insurance, and it costs you $25 per year to license the car. There is a $1,500 early termination fee on the lease. There is a $500 penalty if you turn the car in with “excess wear and tear.”

Questions and answers

1. What is the total cost of the car over four years including all payments, insurance and fees? •$22,498 •Payments = $18,384 ($383 x 48 months) •Insurance = $3,264 ($68 x 48 months) •Licensing = $100 ($25 x 4 years) •Fees = $750 (security deposit and paperwork)

Slide 34

Page 35: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

Questions and answers

• 2. You are in a car accident during the last year of the lease and the car is a total loss, thus ending the lease early. How will this affect you?

• You will potentially have to pay the $1,500 for early lease termination along with the $500 for “excess wear and tear.”

Slide 35

Page 36: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

Questions and answers

Slide 36

• 3. At the end of your 48-month lease, you go to the dealer to trade the car in for another. Upon

• reviewing the odometer, the dealer notices that it reads 59,825 miles. What will happen?

• You will have to pay a mileage overage charge of $2,956.25 because you exceeded the 48,000 miles you were allowed (12,000 x 4 years) by 11,825 miles (59,825 – 48,000) and the cost per mile is $.25 (11,825 x .25)

Page 37: Pequannock Township High School Unit Six Renting vs. Owning.

Questions and answers

• 4. When you go to return the car, you decide you like it and want to purchase it. How much will this

• cost you? • The car will be worth $14,000 at that

time, so you will have to finance $13,500 at the current rate and for a period of time that you select. (This is $14,000 less the refundable $500 security deposit.)
