  • 그만큼 labor market is the broad term for the interaction between workers (supply) and employers (demand).
  • 그만큼 “price” of labor is the wage, which tends to increase when demand for workers is high and the supply of qualified workers is low.
  • Key metrics used to analyze the health of the labor market include the 실업률 그리고 labor force participation rate.

14.3 Renting vs. Buying

재정 및 개인적 고려 사항:

  • 젊은 성인들은 주택 소유에 따른 장기적인 재정적 책임과 유지 관리 책임을 피하고, 유연성 있는 임대를 선호할 수도 있습니다.
  • 임대와 구매의 비용과 혜택을 비교하려면 월별 지불액, 주택 가격 상승 가능성, 개인의 라이프스타일 선호도를 분석해야 합니다.

 

임대 또는 매수 결정은 재정 상태, 라이프스타일 선호도 및 장기 계획에 따라 영향을 받습니다. 다음은 이를 비교한 것입니다.

  • 단기 임대 비용 및 이점:
      • 사전 비용(보증금 대 선불금)이 낮습니다.
      • 이동의 유연성.
      • 유지 관리 비용이 없습니다.

  • 구매의 장기적 비용 및 이점:
    • 부동산 가치 상승 가능성.
    • 시간이 지남에 따라 자산이 형성됩니다.
    • 담보대출 이자에 대한 세금 공제 가능성

 

실제 상황: 사라는 자신의 도시에서 임대와 매수를 비교합니다. 그녀는 월 모기지 상환금이 임대료보다 높을 수 있지만 주택 자산 성장 가능성으로 인해 매수가 재정적으로 건전한 장기적 결정이라고 계산합니다.

 

In some cases, individuals may encounter rent-to-own agreements, especially for homes or furniture. While renting-to-own offers flexibility and the chance to eventually own the property or item, it often results in paying significantly more over time compared to buying outright.
 Buying a home directly builds equity and may lead to long-term financial stability, while renting (or rent-to-own) provides short-term flexibility but little or no ownership benefits until all payments are made.

This image provides a simple, educational overview of what a 저당 is, explaining it as a loan used to purchase a home. It likely illustrates the core relationship where a lender provides a large sum of money to a borrower, who then repays it in installments over many years. The goal is to define this fundamental financial concept in an easy-to-understand visual format.

 

 주요 시사점:

 

  • ㅏ 저당 is a specific type of long-term loan from a bank or financial institution that helps you buy a house.
  • The property you buy with the loan serves as 방계친, meaning the lender can take possession of the home if you fail to make your payments.
  • Mortgages are typically repaid through regular monthly payments over a long period, commonly 15 to 30 years.
  • Each monthly payment consists of two main parts: the principal (the original loan amount) and the 관심 (the cost of borrowing the money).

 

 정보의 응용:

Key Mortgage Qualification Factors

 

When applying for a mortgage, two important financial ratios lenders consider are:

 

  • Debt-to-Income (DTI) Ratio:
     Measures how much of your monthly income goes toward debt payments.


     예: If your total debt payments are $1,800 and your monthly income is $5,000, your DTI = 36%.
     

Lenders typically prefer a DTI below 36%.


  • Loan-to-Value (LTV) Ratio:
     Compare the size of your mortgage to the home’s value.


     예: If you buy a $250,000 home with  a $50,000 down payment, your loan is $200,000. Your LTV = 80%.
     

A lower LTV reduces lender risk and can help you avoid private mortgage insurance (PMI).


Understanding these ratios can improve your chances of qualifying for better mortgage terms.
