One of the most important decisions you can make is whether to buy or rent an apartment. There are times when it makes more sense to rent. When that's the case, a licensed estate agent can help sort through the lifestyle and financial considerations involved and help you make the right choice for your needs.                                                                                            

An experienced Cam Properties real estate broker knows the market and understands the rental process. We can negotiate on your behalf and guide you through the complexity and range of considerations you’ll face in today’s rental marketplace.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

Some factors you may want to consider in your decision to rent versus buy:

  • FREQUENT JOB RELOCATION 
    If the nature of your job means that you relocate often, or you are likely to relocate sometime within the next few years, renting may be the ideal solution for you.
     
  • HOME MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS 
    If you don't have time for on-going maintenance and repairs, renting is a better option, as the landlord or management company is responsible for the property.
     
  • WHEN RENTING COSTS LESS 
    One of the most obvious cases for renting instead of buying a home is when renting simply costs less. Renting can also give you time to get to know an area and become comfortable there before choosing to buy.
