Buying a home typically achieves which two financial goals at the same time?
A
Maximizing credit card rewards and minimizing insurance costs
B
Increasing short-term liquidity and reducing tax liability
C
Eliminating all debt and increasing cash flow
D
Building equity and providing a place to live
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the concept of 'building equity': Equity refers to the portion of the home's value that you own outright, which increases as you pay down the mortgage or as the property value appreciates over time.
Recognize the financial goal of 'providing a place to live': Purchasing a home fulfills the basic need for shelter, offering stability and security compared to renting.
Analyze why the other options are incorrect: For example, buying a home does not directly maximize credit card rewards or minimize insurance costs, nor does it eliminate all debt or increase short-term liquidity.
Connect the two correct financial goals: Buying a home simultaneously builds equity (a long-term financial benefit) and provides a place to live (a practical and immediate benefit).
Conclude that the correct answer aligns with the dual financial goals of homeownership, which are both practical and investment-oriented.
