People tend to assume that homes are great investments - they’re not, that mortgages are a wealth building hack - they help, but as much as some people think, that paying off a mortgage lowers your housing costs - it actually raises them, and that owning a home makes people happy - it might, but don’t count on it. ------------------ Meet with PWL Capital: https://pages.pwlcapital.com/en-ca/contact-us?utm_source=content&utm_medium=youtube&utm_campaign=benfelix_yt *Avoid Online Scams https://pwlcapital.com/stay-safe-online/ I will never reach out to you on social media platforms or WhatsApp to give financial advice.

Homeowners' replacement cost comprises 24.85% of the owned accommodation item in the CPI, while homeowners' maintenance and repairs comprise 9.97%, or 0.60% of the building value. Together, this suggests depreciation and maintenance costs of 2.1% of the building value. *The Psychology of Home Ownership* Video: https://youtu.be/0G_OSohLC_A?si=5mWx4KanW7HzM57T References: https://zbib.org/dfc892f743e14459bea621fd9fbba1fa ------------------ Follow Ben Felix on - Twitter: https://twitter.com/benjaminwfelix Visit Rational Reminder: https://rationalreminder.ca/ Join the Rational Reminder Community: https://community.rationalreminder.ca/ Follow the Rational Reminder on: - Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/RationalRemind - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rationalreminder/ Visit PWL Capital: https://www.pwlcapital.com/ Follow PWL Capital on: - Twitter: https://twitter.com/PWLCapital - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PWLCapital - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/pwl-capital/ You can find the Rational Reminder podcast on Google Podcasts: https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9yYXRpb25hbHJlbWluZGVyLmxpYnN5bi5jb20vcnNz Apple Podcasts: https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-rational-reminder-podcast/id1426530582?mt=2 Spotify Podcasts: https://open.spotify.com/show/6RHWTH9iW7hdnA7eAg7ukO?si=hjZNfLKuSjSeWX38GPqhVA ------------------
