YOU CAN BENEFIT FROM HELPING YOUR KIDS BUY A HOME!

Naturally, you’d love to see your grown kids buy their first home sooner

rather than later!

Let’s talk about financing options, including innovative New

Home Buyer Programs, and how you can help make it happen.

Maybe your adult children are among the 16 percent of those aged 25 to 34, still living at home.

Or maybe yours are among the nearly 50 percent of renters who spend more than 30 percent of their income on housing, according to the Joint Center for Housing at Harvard University.

Instead of stashing money in their landlord’s pocket, wouldn’t it be great to help them start building their own wealth, while watching your estate grow, by helping them!

Why It’s Hard for Millennials to Buy…

Saving for a down payment on your first home was probably

hard, but today’s first-time buyers may face even bigger obstacles.

Home prices have risen considerably faster than wages for years, which makes it tough for them to catch up and build cash reserves. At the same time, rents and student loan debts have skyrocketed!

There May Be Something You Can Do…Right Now!

There are several options to consider:

• Become a non-occupant, co-borrower. “Joint Borrowing” is when two or more people

use their combined income and credit history to qualify for a loan.

• Provide down payment funds. Check with your tax professional for limits on tax-free

gifts.

• Loan them money as a second mortgage. Combined Loan-to- Value limits apply.

•Use your 401K, or theirs. Check with your tax professional for details.
