Buy or rent a property?
Answer
Rent is more advantageous if: you plan to move, have unstable income, buying requires >80% mortgage, rent is significantly less than mortgage payment. Buying is better if: you live in the same place for 7+ years, have a 20%+ down payment, property prices are rising. Calculator: compare total costs over 10 years. Ownership is not always better.
