Naturally it makes sense to seek a comfortable, well-designed residence. Buying a new home makes good financial sense.

Therefore, you would have doubled the original amount invested in the house. With tax law changes, a home is one of the best tax shelters available as you can deduct mortgage interest and property tax from federal and state income tax returns.
