You'll save money, save taxes on the mortgage interest, and your property value is the safest thing to have money in. They are NOT making any more land.
not always true. I live in a $500k house with no mortgage. Costs $1.1k per month to run the house with heat, electric, water, gas, etc.

thats not counting repairs, furniture, carpet, paint, regular maintenance.

It easily costs $1.5k - $2k to run this house and we dont have a mortgage at all.

only 3 people living here.
