Katie Gatti Tassin:购房的预期和现实之间存在巨大差异。购房作为财富积累机制的叙事非常强大,但现实情况通常达不到预期。人们对购房的观念根深蒂固,即使数据表明租房更好,也很难改变他们的想法。作者自身经历说明,购房的额外成本(如房产税、HOA费用、保险等)常常被忽视,导致购房成本远超预期。作者的购房计划因意识到额外成本而搁浅,这突显了人们对购房成本的误判。在当前租房市场和购房市场严重失衡的情况下,租房并投资差价通常比购房更划算。对于善于储蓄和投资的人来说,“强制储蓄”的优势并不明显。拥有房屋的成本在完全拥有房屋后最高,因为此时机会成本最高。抵押贷款利息抵税的优势有限,仅适用于特定人群。固定利率抵押贷款的优势在于月供稳定,而租金通常会随时间上涨。房产升值率通常低于股市,杠杆作用是房产投资的优势之一。高净值人群更倾向于购房,但这并不意味着购房必然导致财富积累。购房前应确保有足够的储蓄和稳定的收入,避免过度负债。大多数人最终都会再次成为租房者,因此购房的长期价值需要仔细权衡。购房的决定不应仅仅基于社会压力或营销宣传,而应基于个人的实际需求和财务状况。 Chris Hutchins:人们关于租房与买房的建议大多基于个人经历而非数据分析比较。购房的各种额外支出(如房产税、保险、维护、维修、装修等)与租房的成本都需要考虑,并进行比较。购房的“强制储蓄”优势在于按揭还款中包含本金偿还,但初期大部分还款用于支付利息。目前除少数城市外,大多数主要城市租房都比买房便宜。如果未来利率下降,购房并进行再融资可能更划算,但这取决于利率的未来走势。购房的额外费用(如过户费)也需要考虑在内。过去几代人通过房产积累财富,是因为当时的投资选择有限。人们为了满足未来需求而提前购买更大的房屋,这会导致额外的成本支出。租房与买房的比较应该基于相同类型的房屋,并考虑租房的灵活性。将房屋的一部分出租或用于其他创收方式,可以降低购房成本。高昂的利率和低廉的现有房贷利率导致房屋销售市场低迷。了解卖家的需求,可以帮助买家更好地进行谈判。在购房谈判中,了解卖家的需求(例如,快速成交、房屋维护状况等)可以帮助买家获得更好的价格。购房会增加家具和装修等额外支出。购房决策中,理性的财务分析和个人的情感需求都需要考虑。租房的优势在于灵活性,尤其对于职业生涯尚不稳定的人群。
