[quote=Anonymous]Don't be scared to rent.  Buying only works if you are staying put and you are sure you will get your equity and make money off the house.  If not, why bother?  Owning a house is so much maintenance.  I would rent and make my money in the markets.  The name of the game is making money.  Does it matter how you get it? :) why cares what other people think? I would gladly be friends with someone who rented - I would want a friend v no friend.  You also have to get over wanting friends.  Most people you don't need as friends if they look down on you for renting!

I never understood why owning a home was such a big deal.  Again, you have to be able to achieve the "dream" not just for owning for owning sake.

Personally I don't know how someone even buys a house in this market without serious financial support or if they were loaded.  Not a home in a top neighborhood that's beautiful or a gut job I guess.  I'm all about location.  That's your equity right there. Whether up and coming or established, there's no other way. [/quote]
