Rent Versus Own

Rent Versus Own

I’m often asked, “should I rent versus own a home”.  The answer depends on your personal situation. If you are new to the southwest Florida area, sometimes it is a good idea to rent for a season or for a couple of months to determine which area is best for you and your family. North Naples is very different than Old Naples. Do you want to live in a golf community or in a luxury home overlooking the Gulf of Mexico?

Some Highlights:

  • Owning your own home vs. renting may lead to some great options, such as locking in your monthly payments and having the freedom to customize your living space.
  • Whether you rent or own, you have to cover someone’s mortgage costs. You may as well be doing so to build your own wealth, rather than that of your landlord.
  • Renting and owning both have up-front fees when you sign your lease or close, respectively. Think about putting that money to work for you!

Also, if you are considering new construction, remember the contractor’s real estate agent represents the builder’s best interest, not yours.  There is no cost for you to have an agent represent you. In fact, we may be able to help you save money and negotiate for extras which the builder may not let you know about.

Lastly, we will handle all contract negotiations for your property from offer to close!
