Rent vs. Buy: What’s Your Choice?
In Los Angeles County, the average rent for a 2-bedroom apartment hovers between $2,800 and $3,000 a month. On the flip side, if you’re considering purchasing a home, the approximate monthly mortgage on a $500,000 property with a 10% down payment (with assistance) ranges from $2,700 to $3,100. This could even include deductible property taxes! So, would you rather pay rent to a landlord or invest in a home and start building equity?
