Infographic: Rent vs. Own

June 18, 2021

Owning a home has distinct financial benefits over renting. When you rent, you build your landlord’s wealth, your monthly payment depends on ever-rising rents, and you don’t benefit from home price appreciation. On the other hand, when you own your home, you build your own wealth, your monthly payment is locked in, and you benefit directly from home price appreciation.

Owning a Home Has Distinct Financial Benefits Over Renting

If you’re feeling the challenges of a competitive market, remember that homeownership is a long-term game. Persevering today will lead to financial rewards in the future.

TESTIMONIALS

"Russ, Went above and beyond for me. Being from out-of-state, he really knew what area I needed and wanted to be in. He had a lot of extra details in this purchase for me. After meeting Russ, he knew the situation I am in and made this move to the area and home perfect for me. I can not thank him enough."
- R.H., Green Valley AZ
"Russ is the best agent on the planet, bar none! He came highly recommended to me and I suggest everyone should work with this stellar man. Russ is a fantastic negotiator. I don’t think another agent would have been able to seal this deal as well as Russ. He knows when to back off and when to apply pressure. Russ is always a gentleman and treats everyone with respect. He has a good sense of humor and although a bit dry, he really makes you chuckle when the chips are down. I came to Green Valley hoping to have an accepted offer on a house in one week. Russ did it! And, my house is very special. Plus I was on a tight budget. Russ has the patience of a saint and will answer a dumb question 4 times over if need be. His knowledge of local contractors and laws specific to your purchase is more than helpful. Russ has a great knowledge of the area in general and he works to find you just what it is you are looking for. Russ listens. Rare quality in a man, hu? And, he’s a dog lover! "
- R.H., Green Valley AZ
"Honest with facts and straight forward with helpful guidance. Our purchase was long distance in nature. It is important to work with someone, like Russ, you can trust."
- J.N., Green Valley AZ
