Homebuying? Or Buying to Invest?

If you are buying property purely to make money, you are investing. Your moves and your choices should be based on facts and figures. Your head should rule; there is no place for the heart in the investment game. 

If you are Homebuying, your heart - how you FEEL about a property - must be a factor. Homebuying is often more of a challenge than pure investing. You are buying a shelter, a comfort zone, a reflection of your taste, and a status symbol in our society as well as a financial hedge against inflation and an investment for the future.
