10 WORST CITIES FOR RENTERS!

10 Worst Cities for Renters: Maybe these renters should make it their goal to own a home.

While, I don’t think everyone should be a homeowner, yeah...that’s right I said it! Imagine, a Realtor saying that but I’m just being honest. Home ownership is a big responsibility and some folks are just not ready take on that kind of responsibility....that's a big word. Being a renter sometimes is better. So, how do you know if the area you live in is better to rent than to own.

My opinion: buy a home that if needed, you could rent it out to cover the debt and all expenses. In the event, that you or your spouse becomes unemployed you could rent it out and move in with a relative until you’re back on your feet. Or you could rent part of the house out to help with the cost, but I don't really like that option.  That just me! I wouldn't want to live with total strangers.

If the rent wouldn’t even cover your mortgage payment, I wouldn’t buy it, but if you have enough savings to cover any shortfall then go ahead and buy it.
