The decision to rent or buy isn’t to be taken likely. There are benefits to both. With renting, you can know that maintenance is covered and upkeep isn’t your concern. If you need to move within two years, renting may work best for you then…… and that’s about it.

Buying*** is better if you’re planning on building wealth and want to control, yes control, more of your cost.

We often hear this fact or that statistic, but when was the last time you actually had a real-world example of the true cost of renting vs buying?

The average rent in Jefferson County is almost $1200 a month. It may be less in surrounding counties, but that coincides with comparable housing prices. The fact is that with a credit score of 620 or higher, down-payment assistance programs, unique loan options such as VA, FHA, USDA, and others, purchasing a home may just be a matter of seeing what your options are.
