Default Re: Don't Buy Stay Renting...Thoughts?

Hi Duane,

Thanks for starting an interesting thread.

Here is the gist of an article I had read long time back. A research was done on businesses that had closed down.

Businesses that rented space and had closed down made losses. But businesses who owned their shop and had to close down didn't make losses. Because their property appreciated and made up for any loss.

The ezinearticles article you linked to says:

Quote:
while shockingly the average return of investment on a house is ZERO!

Thats not true for all the regions and all types of real estate.

Prices of ground level shops or road-side real estate almost always appreciate well above the rate of inflation. So do houses in a growing city.

So - should you buy or rent depends on:

1. Your purpose
2. The timing
3. The location
