Give it up, Live it up, and Party up!

In any economy, the backbone of survival is job creation. This fact is most often overlooked when buying a home. After all, when a buyer is buying a home, there are so many thoughts and process’ going on, the thought of a philanthropic contribution to society takes a back seat.



So you… Mr. & Mrs. Buyer, when buying a home, are giving to the masses.

How can this be? With available grant monies, seller contributions, tax credits, and lender incentives, a buyer can buy a home without spending a dime of their own. In fact, they can buy a home for less than it would cost to rent. And, get paid thousands of dollars, every year, for the life of the loan to do so. This sounds more like a Robert Kiyosaki “No Money Down” scheme, than a way to contribute to the masses. However, it’s true! No matter how you slice the pie, the money is still transferred when a home is sold.

The National Association of Realtors has published data on the economic impact of a home being sold, and they say that when a home is sold, based on the median sale price of a home in the United States of $176,800, the income derived from the sale is an astonishing $52,205.

Of this amount, real estate related industries generate $15,912. This is the income the Realtor, lender, and title companies receive. At this point the ball gets rolling.

When the smoke clears from the successful close of escrow, the buyers then purchase furniture, appliances, and begin remodeling their new home, with carpet, paint, and other items to make it their own. On average, they spend $4,429.

Additionally, when every 8 homes are sold, 1 new home is built. This generates another $22,100 of income.

And to top this all off, the celebrations begin! From builder to buyer, and seller too, dinners are bought, drinks are downed, trips to events are had, shows are attended, and tithes are given. These most necessary expenses come with a bill in the tune of… a whopping $9,764.

This is job creation at its best! So… Buy a home, and give it up, live it up, and party up! Everyone wins!
