Did you know that homeownership is the number one wealth-building tool? The Survey of Consumer Finances concluded that the net worth of homeowners is 44 times greater than that of renters. Studies also show that homeownership has a significant positive impact on educational achievement, health and overall quality of life. It builds a strong family and community ties and for middle-income Americans, the family home is often the largest asset of their portfolio.
