Not only does owning a home help you achieve a sense of pride an accomplishment, it’s also a Status symbol that you can use to your advantage. Here are 4 reasons to remind yourself why homeownership is the ultimate boss move.

1. At class reunions: Dreading your next high school reunion? It’s been 10, 20, maybe 30 years since you’ve seen these people – what on earth do you have to talk about? How about the fact that you’re independently financing your dream home – that’s pretty impressive! Homeownership is part of the American Dream and you’ve achieved it. A humble brag now and again is acceptable, especially under these circumstances.

2. At holiday parties: Hosting your very own holiday party in your brand new home is a new level of boss-status achievement. There’s no doubt your friends and family will be in awe of your hosting skills . . . and your swanky new pad. They may even back off a little about finding your perfect partner, which brings us to the next point…

3. When dating: Nothing says you’re a catch like being financially savvy enough to own a home. Impress your dating prospects with your independence, stability and ambition – all qualities that could translate to romantic relationships. With the right match, your new home may be the space where you’ll one day raise a family with your new significant other.
4. At HOA meetings: Bosses aren’t afraid to voice their opinions and neither should you be. Speaking up in a room full of your neighbors and peers is empowering, so exercise your right to get involved with your HOA and put your stamp on your community. When that new covenant is passed thanks to your persuasive leadership skills, you’ll start to fully embrace your inner-boss.
