Rent or Buy

Wondering whether to rent or buy a home?

It’s an age old question. Is it better to RENT, or better to BUY? Let’s do some very simple analysis, and in later posts we’ll learn more about why buying a home makes sense much of the time, while renting a house is likewise a good move from time to time. Check out the chart below…….

If you’re currently renting, and your rent is $1500 a month, then you can look at the chart and see that if you paid $1610 a month for a mortgage payment you could qualify for a $300,000 loan at 5% interest (the current rate). Used to be in San Diego that $300,000 wouldn’t buy you much, but that has changed!!

Consider the other opportunities that come with owning a home, and the least you should do is take some time to contact us about seeing if this really makes sense for you.
