Should you buy a home in yours 20s?

Your twenties are the beginning of your life. You just graduated from college, found a job and started your career. Your future is bright and your life is ahead of you. You still have time to travel, do the things that you are passionate about and create an empire where you’re the boss. You also have time and energy to investigate and make sound financial investments.

Wasting your time and money on frivolous investments will get you nowhere. This is the time to take risks and create investments that can help you reach your goals or maybe even retire early.

One of the best investments to start with is buying a home. Here are some of the reasons why you need to buy a property while you’re still in your twenties.

Complete independence

It’s common here in the Philippines to stay at our family homes after graduation. But times are changing and more and more young professionals opt to have a place of their own. Having your own property can teach you a thing or two about independence. It’s also a good place to start if you want complete freedom from your parents.

Start early and you’ll pay loans faster

Starting your home loan early can help you in the future. Imagine having to pay for mortgage for only a short period of time in your 30s and 40s. You’ll be able to enjoy life in that age, save money for your kids’ future, and never be troubled again by home loan problems.

More freedom

Another reason why we loathe living under our parents’ roof is the lack of freedom. You don’t have the freedom to decorate the place the way you want it or have visitors come over. Owning your own place means freedom to do what you want and to grow at your own pace.

Complete those long-term goals

We all have long-term goals that we dream of accomplishing before life passes us by. If your long term goal includes having a family of your own and being financially stable, then owning a house at this age should be on top of your must do list.

Good value for your money

In this day and age, we can all get sidetracked by material things that we don’t actually need. The new iPhone, the newest color in Kylie Jenner’s lip kit empire – those things that won’t have any value to you in the future. Put your money in an investment that can help you build the future you’re aiming for.
