RENTING VS. OWNING
Everyone's situation is unique, and while renting may be the only option for some due to financial constraints, the ultimate goal for many is homeownership. Owning a home not only provides stability but also allows for equity growth and tax advanages, which can be leveraged for future investments or to generate additional income.
