Model Answer – Writing Task 2


The members of certain areas claim that being a houseowner can bring more benefits
than being a tenant. The following essay will first suggest that the biggest reasons for
this assumption are the stability and the potential for long-term investments, and I think
this is a negative trend since it exacerbates the financial strain and owners are unable
to withdraw the expenses if they intend to vacate.
The foremost reasons for the significance of homeownership are that it can provide a
high level of security and generate opportunities for purchasers to earn an extra source
of income. Firstly, as the public can avoid accommodation hunting when a rental
contract expires, they can focus on other important decisions such as career goals or
marriage, which altogether boosts their living standard. Secondly, the settlement of the
mortgage empowers buyers to rent out a portion of their property, so they are likely to
compensate for the paid expenses and earn additional income. For example, many
landlords in urban centres have refurnished their rooms as homestays for rent and this
brings them large sums of money.
However, the trend that many individuals value the possession of a residence over
rented accommodation is negative due to its contribution to financial issues and the
freedom of relocation. If unexpected difficulties, namely job loss or a decrease in wage,
arise, it can be overwhelming to balance between redeeming property taxes and
covering utility bills, which raises concerns about eviction or stress. Furthermore, while
tenants can easily terminate a rental contract and find a new place if they are not
satisfied with their current accommodation, it is very difficult for homeowners to do the
same. In other words, once a person makes an unwise decision and settles in an area
where they later regret, they are usually left with two options: either make their
residence available for rent or accept living in a place they are not happy with.
In conclusion, I believe that purchasers in some countries now prefer to buy their
homes because they seek stability and a way to make a profit. Nevertheless, unless
thorough considerations are made, homeowners may face undesirable outcomes as a
result.
