For decades now, Indians have considered buying a house as one of the smartest forms of investment. This transcends social status \u2013 buying a house lends a degree of financial security, unlike any other instrument. Let\u2019s see why buying a home is undoubtedly a smart investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You save your disposable income<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you choose to rent an apartment, your monthly rental goes straight to your landlord\u2019s pocket. You derive absolutely no financial security or worth from the rental sum, and you work so hard to earn a living. On the other hand, if you own a house, your monthly disposable income is for you to use; it doesn\u2019t add to your landlord\u2019s bank balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Protection from market shifts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you buy a house at present, the value of your property is expected to increase at about 7-9% every year, considering historical real estate market trends. Let\u2019s say, your housing loan EMI payments last for about 25-30 years. At the end of your loan tenure, you are likely to end up with a house that is 10-20% more expensive than its initial value. Any piece of real estate is usually risk-free in the long-run. Buying a house, for this reason, is largely viewed as security against inflation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EMIs equal rent<\/strong>
For working professionals, salaries normally increase by 8-10% every year. EMIs, however, remains constant. Rent, on the other hand, increases by about 7-10% every year.

The maximum amount of interest deduction can be Rs. 2 lakhs for self-occupied houses that are pre-constructed or constructed within 5 years of loan approval. Additionally, interest payable on a home loan is also tax-deductible. If you decide to rent your house, the entire amount of interest is not taxable, irrespective of the construction period. You may also claim principal deductions with a maximum amount of Rs. 1.5 lakhs for self-occupied houses under Section 80 of the Income Tax Act.
