Why homeownership in California isn't nearly the financial slam dunk it once was

  • By BEN CHRISTOPHER CalMatters

Owning a home is a benchmark of success and a way to amass wealth. But in California, with increasing home prices and mortgage interest rates above 6%, combined with rent control policies, it might make more financial sense to rent. For some, renting is necessary because they cannot afford to buy. Others may rent and put additional money into the stock market or other investments to build wealth. The advantages of buying a single-family home include extra space, a sense of security and likely better schools than might be available to people living in apartments. California's homeownership rate of 55% is second lowest in the nation and a full 10 percentage points below the national average.
