On a $10,000 investment compounding at 7% gross return, a 0.30% expense ratio quietly compounds against your balance every year. The Fee Compounding Forecast card above projects the dollar drag for any holding period and assumption you pick. The typical result for a 1.0% expense ratio on a 30-year hold is roughly 25% of the final balance lost to fees. ### How does HOMZ charge its expense ratio? The expense ratio is deducted in tiny daily slices from HOMZ's net asset value (NAV). You never see a bill. The price quoted on every exchange is already net of fees. There's no "fee day" to avoid; the cost is continuous and built into the trading price. ### Why does HOMZ cost more than a fund like VOO? HOMZ's strategy (current expense ratio 0.30%) is different from a broad-market index tracker like VOO, so its fee belongs to a different cohort. The Cost Verdict card above shows you where HOMZ sits within its own category, which is the comparison that actually matters. ### Are there cheaper alternatives to HOMZ? The Lower-Fee Alternatives card above lists ETFs following the same investment strategy as HOMZ (0.30%) but at a lower expense ratio. Each row shows the fee gap, the peer's AUM as a liquidity sanity-check, and a direct link to that fund's analysis page. Cheaper price doesn't automatically mean better.
