Should You Buy or Rent a Home?

Here is a simple chart that explains why we think buying a home makes more sense than renting one.  This chart represents national monthly rental rates; currently, the average rental rate near downtown Seattle is $1500/month for a one bedroom apartment.

A mortgage payment on a $250,000 home or condominium would be about the same as renting.  If you are considering a home purchase, give us a call, text or email.
