Arlington Heights renters, are you sick of throwing your money away by renting? Thought about buying a home, condo, or town house? Rent has risen over 10% in the last year and is currently the highest it has ever been and is still rising. With buying, you get to lock in a fixed monthly mortgage payment which would not change for the duration of your loan. It’s true that many renters enjoy the flexibility of not being tied down to a specific location or property. But besides that, advantages are scarce. Plus, renting removes your ability to have control over the situation. You can’t control whether your landlord raises rent or decides to kick you out when your lease ends. You can’t make many changes to the property, and even if you could you’d still have to get permission. With buying, you are the Alpha and whatever you say goes. You call the shots on your living situation.
