4. Rent or Buy? A Case Study ...
The Browns have an opportunity to buy a home valued at $50 000 with a down
payment of $5000 and a mortgage of $45 000, or rent the home for $525 per
month.
If they buy, they will get a 15-year mortgage at 7.5%. Annual property taxes
are approximately 1.5% of the market value (i.e. the sale price) of the home.
They expect their home to appreciate in value by about 2% per year. (That is, it
will become 2% MORE VALUABLE each year. If it is worth $100 this year,
next year it will be worth $102 and the year after that it would be worth
$104.04.)
If they rent, their rental payments will increase by 3% each year, and they
expect to get a 7% annual return on their investment of the $5000 they did not
use as a down payment.

9. Mr. T’s family has decided to buy a larger home, and the date of possession is
April 1. The following expenses are related to the purchase of the home:
The price of the home is $135 000, and he has $45 000 as a down payment. He
will buy homeowners insurance on the new home for $425, but will receive a
refund of $300 from his previous home insurance policy. He has the new home
appraised by a real estate agent, and the fee is $250. The bank requires a land
survey which costs $550. His legal fees, including land transfer taxes and
disbursements, are $875.The movers charged $1200 for moving his furniture
and other belongings, and the company he works for paid half of this. The
family decided to install new carpets into part of the house at a cost of $2400
plus PST and GST (7% each). He did the installation himself, and so there were
no installation charges. They also bought a new fridge for $940 plus PST and
GST (7% each) to replace the old one that did not fit into the new kitchen. The
previous owner had paid the property taxes of $2350 for the period January 1 to
December 31, and he had to pay for his share of the taxes. The cost of hooking
up telephone and TV are $45.
Determine the additional costs of moving for Mr. T and his family.
