Should I Rent or Buy? 
Most renters have enough income to buy a home, 
but don’t know it. For various rent levels, this chart 
shows the home price the renter could afford without 
paying more than their current rent, after tax deductions 
are figured in. The chart assumes that they don’t have 
large debts and that they have a 10% down payment.
