<p>Owning a home has been a staple of the American dream for decades, and in 2018 it seems the vast majority of Americans still hope to make that dream a reality.</p>
<p>According to NerdWallet&rsquo;s most recent&nbsp;<a href="https://www.nerdwallet.com/blog/2018-home-buyer-report/#rent" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Home Buying Report</a>, only 17% of Americans surveyed said they preferred renting over homeownership, putting the percentage of Americans who prefer homeownership at a whopping 83%. And even more telling, much of that 17% would own a home if it was financially viable. Of the people surveyed who said they preferred renting over buying, 56% said it was because they don&rsquo;t have the money, and 22% said they had bad credit (which could prevent them from being approved for a home loan). But with rents steadily increasing, homeownership is actually becoming the more affordable option in markets across the country (according to a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.zillow.com/research/affordability-q3-2017-17466/">recent study by Zillow</a>, owning a home is more affordable than renting in the majority of metro markets across the US).</p>
<blockquote>
<h4><strong>The Takeaway</strong></h4>
<p>If you&rsquo;ve been renting because it seemed like the more economical choice, that might no longer be the case. Homeownership may be more in your reach (and more affordable!) than you think.</p>
