Good morning.
I'm trying to determine how one would go about figuring out which option is better...
1. Take NET INCOME and purchase the MOST EXPENSIVE home one can realistically afford, hoping that appreciation is favorable.
2. Determine the MINIMUM INCREMENTAL AMOUNT of dollars you would have to save on top of your existing investments that would offer the same NET RETURN.
So...*bare with me here...*
Investments * return = Option 1
Home * return = Option 2
How do I compare the incremental investment required in Option 1 to be >/= the net gain realized from B?
