BY STEVE BARRETT BUY A HOME IN THE RIGHT LOCATION, GOES THE TIMEžHONORED ADVICE. BUT ACCORDING TO PHYSICIAN FAMILY FINANCIAL ADVISORS, IT IS ALSO VITAL FOR PHYSICIANS PURCHA SING A FIRST HOME TO GE T THE TIMING RIGHT. LOCATION, LOCATION ... TIMING THE CALCULUS CAN be complicated because of the unusua l f ina ncia l circumsta nces of newly minted physicia ns: They ty pica lly have little income histor y a nd a lot of debt, but high ea rning potentia l. Buy ing a home a s soon a s possible is tempting, Oregon- based Physicia n Fa mily Fina ncia l Advisors acknowledges. However, if a prov ider is not cer ta in he or she w i l l be in a g ivenšma rket long-term, that is risky. The investment could sou r i f t heš physicia n decides to move a nd d iscovers t he a rea's rea l estate ma rket ha s gone south a nd the mor tgage is under water. A good rule of thumb for physicia ns is to purchase a f irst home when they a re conf ident they will rema in in the a rea a minimum of seven yea rs.

This offers some protection aga inst the possibilit y that a good school will not rema in good. ■ CORE 0 5 M D N E W S .C O M /// M D N E W S L O W E R H U D S O N / B R O N X ■ 2 017 F I N A N C E ❰❰❰❰❰ 0 5
