Should You Rent or Buy a Home?
Homeownership was once the cornerstone of the American Dream, but times are changing. More U.S. households are renting today than at any point in the last 50 years, according to a Pew Research Center analysis.
For many people, the comforts of home include a well-funded bank account -- and in some circumstances, renting can be more financially savvy than buying. Ask yourself these questions as you make long-term housing decisions. You might find that renting is the better option.
Whether renting or buying a home is the best financial choice usually comes down to one thing: timing. Finding an affordable home (and later making a profit on it) depends heavily on how long you plan to keep the property. According to Zillow (NASDAQ: ZG), for instance, the current home listing price in Bothell, Washington, is $698,448, and the average rental price is $2,500. Assuming a 20% down payment on a home purchase or a 5% annual increase in rental price, you'd need to own the home for at least two years before it becomes the better option.
