To Rent Or Buy A House

Filed under: Decision-Making — B. Slade @ 2:11 pm

When is it time to just rent or finally buy a house you can call your own?

Probably for most women, owning a house is one part security for her family. It is more likely that married women would prefer their husbands buying them their own house which she can fix and dress, bring up her family, rear her children, show the grand children around and show framed pictures of their children to her grand children. In short, it’s a house turned into a home….a more permanent home, that is.

Most people hate change though the irony of it is change is the only thing permanent in this world. There are things to consider, though, when you are pressed with a decision whether to rent or to buy your own house.

Consider the following:

Rent if:
- you can’t stay in one place for a long time; you get bored easily
- you don’t have enough money to buy even a small property
- your job takes you everywhere you rarely see your home

Buy if:
- you have the money
- you want your roots to hold
- seeing your neighbors (and probably ‘enemies’) the rest of your life is not a problem
