Homes for Dad!

Any opportunity to get outside and enjoy the months of warm weather is an opportunity worth taking and if enjoying the best weather of the year can be combined with the many benefits of grilling, it’s a win-win. There is something about the combination of the outdoors, cold beverages, a hot grill and good company that never gets old.

Surprising Benefits of Living Near a Golf Course

  1. Golf courses close at night, so you can likely enjoy peaceful evenings unless your home borders a path or tee box.
  2. Living near a golf course means that every time you step outside, you’ll likely spot scenery that will take your breath away.
  3. Living in a golf course community often means access to five-star resort amenities, including pools, fitness centers, clubhouse restaurants and exercise classes.
  4. Living near a clubhouse in a golf course community offers abundant entertainment opportunities, including social events like holiday parties, dances and paint nights, fostering neighborly connections.
  5. Investing in a home near a golf course offers high resale value due to the desirability and prestige of such communities, making it a secure investment choice.

Celebrating Juneteenth

  • Juneteenth National Independence Day is celebrated annually on June 19 to commemorate the ending of slavery.
  • Juneteenth commemorates the day when 250,000 slaves in the state of Texas, which became the last bastion for slavery during the final days of the Civil War, were declared free by the U.S. Army.
  • The historical legacy of Juneteenth shows the value of never giving up hope in uncertain times.
  • The holiday is considered the “longest-running African-American holiday” and has been called “America’s second Independence Day.”
  • As we commemorate Juneteenth, let’s reflect on homeownership’s role in building generational wealth. Systemic barriers have long hindered Black communities from achieving this American Dream.

Empowering Our Community Through Homeownership

Homeownership represents stability and a sense of belonging, marking an important life milestone. It also offers financial perks that support long-term wealth accumulation and personal development.

Benefits of Homeownership

1. Building Equity: As you pay down your mortgage and property values rise, your equity grows, providing access to funds for investments, home improvements, and education.

2. Financial Stability: Consistent mortgage payments offer long-term stability, unlike renting, which can involve yearly rent hikes, allowing better financial planning and control.

3. Tax Benefits: You can deduct mortgage interest and property tax payments and may qualify for capital gains tax exclusions when selling your primary home, leading to significant savings.

4. Customization: Homeownership allows you to personalize your living space, whether by remodeling, adding rooms, or creating a garden, enhancing your home’s enjoyment.

5. Wealth Building: Homeownership can build wealth for generations, providing a significant asset that supports your family’s stability and financial security.
