I'm in this dilemma right now as well. I currently rent but am in the position that I could buy a house. Although it would be nice to own something like that and to be putting monthly payments back into my own home instead of to a landlord, I haven't done it yet for a few reasons: I am single and 24yrs old - I kinda think that a house would be too big for me - I'd have to clean it all, not to mention cut grass and do any other yard work (although it would be nice to have a garden!). It's nice to just call my landlord when an appliance in my apartment breaks and not have to pay a repairman myself. I also don't have to worry about replacing or buying new appliances. Housing taxes are taken care of, and the snow is shovelled in the winter. I also don't have to worry about paying for utilities (although that varies with different rented places). I will likely buy a house in the next year or two but for now, I'm going to continue to pay money to have a bit less hassle. Good luck! |

Where is the market, going up, buy, near or at the top rent until the cycle takes it back to average house price 3 and a half times average annual male wage. If you're young get experience of the market so you can make an educated guess, the cycle runs between 10 and 20 years. |

it depends on the situation. like if youre in college its much better to rent so youre not stuck there after you graduate. or, if you have a job but arent too sure if youre going to be keeping it its better to rent. or, even if youre just living single its probably better and cheaper to have an apartment and if you get into a relationship and want to live together it will be easier to move. in other circumstances though its better to have a house. if youre getting married or having a child or if you know you want to live where you are for the rest of your life then i would go for the house, there are MANY more benefits to it. |

only if you are not staying in town long. otherwise you are throwing your money away. |

If you have a job where you move all over the country, then rent. If you plan to live someplace for a long time, then own. However, if your monthly payments are higher than 25% of your income, you are in a house that is too expensive for you! That is a noose around your neck. |

renting, in the long run can actually be more expensive.. when you buy you may be paying the same price but eventually it will be paid for and you wont have to pay anymore.. if you are renting you can live in a place forever and you'll never have it paid off. |

Buying a House is More Better then renting a House... In Cities the Rent is More then what u will pay for Buying a House... |

No because renting an apartment would be smaller than an actual house it wouldn't be the same because your only renting the apartment so technically it's not yours Buying a house would be better because u have something to call ur own |
