5 REASONS MILLENNIALS CHOOSE TO BUY
The top 5 reasons young renters choose to own are:

To Have Control over Their Living Space - 93%
Many Millennials who rent a home or apartment prior to buying their own homes, dream of the day that they will be able to paint the walls whatever color they'd like, or renovate an outdated part of their living space.
Many others who have waited to add a pet to their families daydream about the day that they'll be able to go pick out their 'furever' friend. Owning your own home gives you the freedom to make those choices. |

To Have a Sense of Privacy & Security - 90%
It is no surprise that having a place to call home, with all that means, in comfort and security, is the #2 reason. As a homeowner, you have control over who has access to your home, and you are able to secure it how you see fit.
