Buying a home isn’t just about having a place to call your own — it’s one of the most powerful wealth-building moves you can make. When you buy with the Nickle Team, we don’t just walk you through showings and paperwork. We show you how homeownership can increase your net worth — from day one.

Let’s break down the three core ways owning a home builds your wealth in your first year.

📈 1. Appreciation — Your Home Grows in Value Over Time

Real estate has historically appreciated at about 4% per year on average. That means your home's value increases simply by owning it.

Example:
Let’s say you buy a home for $750,000.
At a 4% appreciation rate, that’s $30,000 in equity gained in just one year — without lifting a finger.

💡Pro tip: In certain Southern California markets, appreciation can be even higher depending on timing and location.

💳 2. Principal Paydown — You're Paying Yourself, Not a Landlord

Each month, a portion of your mortgage payment goes toward paying down your loan’s principal — building equity.

Example:
You finance $700,000 over 30 years at a 6.5% interest rate.
In the first year, you’ll pay down around $8,600 in principal.

That’s money staying with you, not getting lost in rent.

🧾 3. Tax Benefits — Homeownership Pays You Back

Homeowners can deduct mortgage interest and some property taxes, depending on your financial situation.

Example:
You pay $45,000 in mortgage interest in year one.
If you’re in a 28% tax bracket, that could equal around $12,600 in tax savings.

• Always consult with your CPA or lender for exact numbers based on your personal tax situation.

💥 Total First-Year Financial Boost

Let’s add that up from our example:

• $30,000 Appreciation

• $8,600 Principal Paid

• $12,600 Tax Savings

✅ That’s a $51,200 boost to your net worth in one year.

And that’s not including the lifestyle benefits of owning your space, locking in your payment, or being able to make the place yours.
