In this chapter, we learned how mortgages are used to help people purchase a home.
Please research at least two of the following topics and report your findings:
How do you “qualify” for a home mortgage, that is, what conditions must be met for a bank to approve your home loan?
What expenses do you need to budget for in addition to the mortgage payment itself?
What are the pros and cons of home buying vs. renting?
