The age-old question of renting versus buying takes center stage in this episode as we explore whether the American dream of homeownership lives up to the hype. Jake Courtney, CFP®, CSLP®, a financial planner with the SLP Wealth dental team, joins us for a lively debate as we dig into the financial and lifestyle factors that go into this decision, bust some common myths, and help you weigh what’s right for your situation. In the end, we’ll help you decide if buying a home is truly all it’s cracked up to be.

Key moments:

(07:07) The costs of homeownership go beyond the mortgage and include “phantom” expenses you might not expect (13:30) Using the price-to-rent ratio to decide if buying or renting is the smarter financial move (17:08) Why renting isn’t always “throwing money away” — key factors to consider before deciding (26:21) Renting might be your best option if you’ve just bought a business or can’t yet qualify for a mortgage
