Genworth Study Reveals...
There's No Place Like Home
The housing market may have experienced some ups and downs this year, but the spirits of potential first-time homebuyers across Canada remain strong. In our recent First Time Homebuyer Monitor, we found that 84 per cent of those surveyed said that owning a home goes beyond its financial value and feel that homeownership pays off in more ways than one.
The study measured both the financial and psychological factors of homeownership – providing the following insights into the link between homeownership and personal fulfillment:
- 84 per cent agree with the statement, 'Owning a home provides a greater sense of emotional well-being and security'.
- 85 per cent believe that even though homeownership may mean more work and effort, they’d rather own than rent.
- 88 per cent say they would feel more financially secure owning their own home.
The national survey of 2,521 Canadians was conducted between April 24 and May 4. Access Genworth.
