You wanna pay and extra ~$280 a year because you save a little bit of time when you buy a house? You know FreeTaxUSA has all your documents too, right?
You've never bought a house if you think it's saving "a little bit" of time. We're talking easily 40 hours of gathering and filing paperwork here. That's $2,200 of my time. If I buy a house once every 7 years it works out.
I've bought two houses and it did not take me 40 hours of gathering paperwork. Maybe an hour or so maximum to get my paperwork for the bank.
