4 Ways to Save on Monthly Housing Costs

On average, homeowners are spending about $65 less per month on their mortgages than they did in 2009, according to a recent Census report. Back then, homeowners were spending roughly $1,000 per month, and now that number is down to $934. Multiply that by 360 payments, and that’s a potential savings of more than $23,000 over the lifetime of your 30-year mortgage. So if your home is costing you the same as it was five years ago, maybe it’s time to figure out how to shave some of those costs.
