Renting vs. Owning

www.

Question: With home prices so low, I’m thinking now might be the time to transition from renting to owning. Do you have any advice?

JohnRWood .com

Answer: Nothing can make you feel more secure than owning your own home, but only if it doesn’t create financial problems of its own. Figure out your monthly payments if you were to buy. Compare your monthly rent to a calculation of the following: purchase price and down payment of your home, your annual income (and debt), property tax rate, home insurance rate, interest rate and length of loan. It is best if you work with a real estate professional.
