buy, why throw your money away on a rent or lease. It also helps build your credit

Buy.... why put your money into something that isnt yours.. At least have option to buy.

renting is almost the same as trying to pay for one now a days. and wait, maybe im lacking knowledge but isn't leasing the same as renting?

Almost always buy, renting you are going to lose money in the long term.
Also having a home is good if you need credit or start a business.

How long do you plan to stay there? If a few months, rent; if a year or two, lease; if two years or more, buy. House prices have had a secular growth of several percent per year on average, so owning one is good. However, by the time you sell one, buy one, and move, the turnover costs will be on the order of ten percent of the value of the house, so you don't want to do it too often.

Need LOTS more information before making a suggestion.

The simple answer is buy, but that would not make sense if you were 80.

depends?
do you want to live here forever = buy
only for a couple of year = lease
maybe for a year or so = rent

Personally, unless a speculative angle is a consideration, I'd endeavor not to buy or make long term financial committments. Good economics presumes being liquid to the point of personal financial liberty.

Owning is ALWAYS the best option... your money is actually being put towards something you own, not someone elses pocket. You will someday see your cash back in your pocket with owning.


biancoa
depends on what area of the country you live, depends on if you can really afford to buy.
If the place you live is overpriced, then you probably don't want to buy, but if it is seeing an increase in home prices in an area of high growth, it might be better to buy.

If you can afford a 10-20% downpayment, monthly mortgage with a fixed rate mortgage is not more than 30% of renting the same place and you are reasonably sure that you will stay there for at least 3 years, you should buy . Otherwise rent.

buy now before intrest rates get any higher besides renting and leaseing is just throwing your money away
