Welcome to a new weekly series we are launching on the Latin Wealth platform, Wealth Wednesday! On Wealth Wednesday, we will be discussing trending news, Latino culture and topics surrounding business, host by @chrisbelloso and @ricoramirez86.
Today, we're diving into a crucial topic – the decision of whether to keep or sell your real estate property. Whether it's a property passed down through generations or one you've owned for years, we'll be sharing our thoughts on navigating this significant financial choice.
Later in the episode, stay tuned as we explore a thought-provoking article from the Wall Street Journal titled "Should We Sell Our Home Now or Wait Until One of Us Dies?" The piece delves into the complex decision-making process faced by a couple who purchased property in 1989, assessing the implications of selling now versus waiting.
Key Points:
- Capital-gains tax considerations and potential implications on gains.
- Insightful perspectives on whether to sell now or wait, drawing from real-life scenarios.
- A recent DM interaction highlighting unique situations where property is being passed down.
In the second segment, we unravel a fascinating study revealing that 1 in 3 millennials are delaying home buying as interest rates rise. With 96% acknowledging the impact of high-interest rates on their home buying plans, a staggering 90% express regrets about their first home purchase. The most common regrets include issues with location, neighbors, and high-interest rates.
Noteworthy Insights:
- Despite regrets, 79% of millennials are still eager to be homeowners, even willing to pay above the asking price for their dream home.
- The study sheds light on the financial challenges faced by millennials, with high debt levels surpassing savings.
