Better to rent or to buy?
Families often wonder whether they would be better off renting or buying, especially in their younger days when they may not have saved up very much for a down payment.
Trulia has introduced an excellent new widget that allows you to enter personalized information (including sale price of home, typical rental rate paid, your tax rate, your interest rate, etc). This widget will show you in no uncertain terms whether you will be better off renting or buying.
Try it out — you may be surprised! You can find it at http://www.trulia.com/rent_vs_buy/
And if it turns out that you can purchase a home for an amount close to what you would be paying out in rent, then give us a call. We will be pleased to help you find the right house for you, and we’ll even sign you up for a little spending money at Lowe’s. Prediction: Lowe’s and Home Depot will become your favorite places to shop once you become a homeowner!
