Single Family Own or Rent Index Rank
City Own or Rent Ratio
If you are renting in Maricopa County you are paying more per month than it costs to own. The largest factor is that you are not building any equity for your future or taking advantage of historically low interest rates. Find your city below for an idea of how large the difference is and how much money you’re wasting every month on rent.
If you are interested to purchase feel free to contact me. Finding out if/what you can qualify for is free and our mortgage reps will give you a free consultation.
Ratio 16-20: Renting makes more sense but buying may make sense depending on circumstances.
Over 20: Renting less expensive than buying.
