In my personal life a major risk I encountered was becoming a homeowner five years ago. This was a major investment and I wasn’t too sure what to expect. You hear all the good and bad stories of being a homeowner. Unfortunately my first experience of homeownership on day one was a disaster. I had plumbing issues that resulted in $6k of repairs. Even though I had a home inspection, I guess certain things were hidden. This was a major risk for me because since that day, there has been nothing but constant repairs. As of today, I have made all repairs and remodeled my home which now has increased my property value. Increased property value is a huge benefit for me as well as having the ability to right off various things during tax season since
