that would depend on what kind of house you buy but over all there not much difference in rent and buying , give you an example i bought my house 35 years ago yest it paid for t,the payments were 480.00 a month including tax and insurance the houses in neighbor hood were 500.00 a month .today , my taxes and insurance run 200.00 a month the 600.00 dollar homes rent for 1200.00 to 1500.00 a month .we paid 48.000 for the house today value is 204.000.. taking care of house is just upkeep and remember if you want a differant color rooms just paint your not answering to land lord if a land lord does any up keep your pay it any way in rent and he can raise your rent . word of advice stay away from and hoa .real estate goes up in value even if there is a down turn hang on to your house . you have equity in a home you don't renting .
