Is it better to rent an apartment or buy a home if you are going to relocate after one year?
home cost is $280,00, monthly expenses- utilities-$220., maint-$100., property tax-$380., home insurance-$50. 30-year mort-8% interest rate, 20% downpayment and closing costs equal to $1,000. plus 3 points. Rent would be $1400./month plus $220. utilities and renters insurance $25/month. price of housing expected to rise 3%, util, taxes,ect raise 3% anually.

Rent. If you're going to relocate, try to find a cheaper place to rent and save the difference.


Lulu
I would suggest renting. If you really want the feel of a house, then you can also consider renting a house. There are plenty of places that rent houses just as you would rent an apartment. There is more red tape in buying and selling a house than just renting something.

rent. then you don't have the hassle of selling the house.

rent. Housing is not liquid enough to trade on the year.


nakisaki
I've heard it recommended that if you're not planning on staying in a location for at least 5 years, its not worth it to buy a house.

DEFINITELY RENT. You need to take into consideration that it takes time and money to buy a house, then re-sell it w/in a years time frame and problems like what if it doesn't sell, the list goes on. Look at the #'s yourself with bankrate's Rent vs Buy calculator. http://www.bankrate.com/brm/mortgage-advisers/rent-vs-buy.asp.

You should definitely rent. Buying a house is too much hassle for one year.


Christabelle
Rent! You can lose a lot of money if you buy a home and then sell it too soon. The housing market fluctuates a lot and you can run into the problem of not being able to sell it when you want to. As far as the suggestion of renting it out to others, think twice. There are too many horror stories of people destroying homes and costly repairs!

i'd say rent an apartment because you cn relocate without having to sell the apartment.

It is always better to rent. When you rent you just pay the rent, and no matter what brakes, the people that get your rent money must fix it for you or you can get them to court for that. Also you never will worry when mother nature gets mad, you just find another place, and don't actually lose money like you would when buying a hose and it gets flooded or destroyed.

i would rent an apartment because going to be relocating in a year so i wouldn't spend all that money on a house 4 a whole year if ur going to move within a year.


pontooner
I would rent if those numbers you gave were correct. You are looking at almost $8000 alone in closing cost. 3 points and 8% with 20% down! You are either getting ripped off or you need this year to work on your credit. Fix your credit and you would be getting 6% today with no points. A point is 1% of the loan amount. I see no upside to this scenario, only problems. Good luck!


Lab Accident
Buying a home is always worth it in the long run. When you own a home you are investing your money, rather than paying someone else's mortgage.

After one year you can Lease the property and they can pay your mortgage and mabye even a few hundred dollars extra for you to sink into a bank account.

You can sell the home and as long as you have put a little improvements into it over the time you were in it, the home will probably appraise higher, and you can make a quick profit.

BUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get into an option ARM and milk the equity for all its worth! I would charge 1 or 2 points and your monthly minimum payment would be UNDER $1000 ($926 if the numbers I entered are exactly right).

For more info, just send me an email, instant message, or fill out this form and I will call you tomorrow!
