Download or read book The Wealthy Renter written by Alex Avery and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2016-09-10 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A National Bestseller! Why be house poor when you can rent rich? “Why rent when you can buy?” More than any other, this phrase captures the overwhelmingly unanimous promotion of home ownership to Canadians. Real estate agents, mortgage brokers, family, friends, and even the government promote ownership as a safe, attractive, and sure-fire path to personal wealth. This one-size-fits-all advice ignores the reality of Canada’s housing market. Canadians deserve better advice. Faced with expensive house prices in a near-zero interest rate world, it’s time Canadians heard the virtues of renting and seriously considered renting as an alternative to home ownership. Real estate analyst Alex Avery insists renting offers a simple, more affordable way to live, plus in Canada’s frenzied housing market, going month-to-month is dramatically lower risk. He claims the reputation of home ownership as a wealth building strategy is unfounded and shows renters how to replace bricks-and-mortar with better investment opportunities.

Book excerpt: “This book couldn't be timelier. With hundreds of thousands of Americans expected to lose their homes because they took out mortgages beyond their ability to pay, it is clear that home buyers need assistance-beyond the reassurance of the mortgage broker trying to close the deal and get his commission. This book, written in an easily accessible manner, provides that assistance; it lays out the economics of buying, owning, and financing a home.” –Joseph Stiglitz, Columbia University, 2001 Nobel Prize in Economics “The purchase of a home is the most significant investment decision confronting nearly all adults. Yet sound advice, untainted by the self-interest of real estate and mortgage brokers, is extremely scarce. In Houseonomics, the Smiths provide simple and understandable answers to the vexing questions surrounding homeownership, making it a valuable resource for anyone serious about their financial future.” –Bryan White, Managing Director, BlackRock “ Houseonomicsoffers great insights about how to think about homeownership. Its approach is innovative, but the analysis is grounded in common sense. A useful primer for what is the most important investment most people make in their lives.” –Paul Efron, Retired Partner and Advisory Director, Goldman Sachs & Co. “This book is a common sense response to those who question the value of homeownership. The Smiths validate the argument that homeownership is normally a key component of lifelong wealth building. They present a practical guide to basic financial analysis for those planning on owning a home or who currently own a home.” –Doug Duncan, Chief Economist, Mortgage Bankers Association “There is a lot of wisdom in Gary and Margaret Smith's Houseonomicsregarding the biggest investment that most people ever make. It is so well written that reading it is a joy and yet almost everyone can gain valuable knowledge in the process. The time you take to read this book will be a smart investment indeed. Having taught economics at Stanford for 35 years, I can only wish that more authors were as knowledgeable as the Smiths and wrote this well.” –John B. Shoven, Stanford University, co-author with Secretary George P. Shultz, Putting Our House in Order: A Guide to Social Security and Health Care Reform “The “Home Dividend” is a powerful concept and, indeed, an engine for prosperity.” –Ed Yardeni, President, Yardeni Research For generations, buying a home has been the best investment Americans could make. But, now, some so-called “experts” claim that it's foolish to be a homeowner. They're wrong. Houseonomicsexplains why a home is still an excellent investment for most people in most places&and helps you make smarter housing decisions wherever you are. This book isn't for aspiring slumlords or flippers: It's for anyone who wants to move toward financial security, with a roof over their heads, and a home to call their own.

Discover how to develop an achievable vision for financial prosperity via homeownership, and treat housing decisions as the investment decisions they really are.

It's never been more important to get clear-headed, sensible, objective advice on homeownership-and that's exactly what Houseonomicsdelivers. "Your home: an investment, not a speculation Understanding and calculating your “home dividend” "Why now is still a good time to own a home Even if home prices don't increase in the coming years "Choosing the right house-and the right mortgage Sensible advice that cuts through the lies, hype, and fear "Refinancing, home equity loans, and remodeling The right ways to make the right decisions

Download or read book Wealth Inequality Asset Redistribution and Risk Sharing Islamic Finance written by Tarik Akin and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-03-04 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wealth inequality has been not only rising at unsustainable pace but also dissociated from income inequality because of the fact that wealth is increasing without concomitant increase in savings and productive capital. Compelling evidence indicates that capital gains and other economic rents are mainly responsible for wealth inequality and its divergence from income inequality. The main argument of the book is that interest-based debt contracts are one of the drivers of wealth inequality through creating disproportional economic rents for the asset-rich. The book also introduces the idea of risk-sharing asset-based redistribution, which is a novel and viable policy proposal, as an effective redistribution tool to address the wealth inequality problem. Furthermore, a large-scale stock-flow consistent macroeconomic model, which is step by step constructed in the book, sheds light on the formation of wealth inequality in a debt-based economy and on the prospective benefits of implementing risk-sharing asset-based redistribution policy tools compared to traditional redistribution policy options. The research presented in this book is novel in many respects and first of its kind in the Islamic economics and finance literature.
