Schedule a call with me: https://cal.com/earlybirdfp/chat Summary In this episode, I break down one of the biggest financial decisions young adults are facing right now, whether to rent or buy a home. I walk through the real numbers behind both options, including the hidden costs of buying that most people never see coming, and make the case that renting is not throwing your money away. I share Riley and Jordan's case study, a couple bringing home $107,000 a year who have their eye on a $280,000 townhome but are not quite as ready as they think. Using the NerdWallet rent versus buy calculator, I show how their breakeven point is 10 years, and why pumping the brakes right now is actually the smartest move they can make. I also walk you through exactly how to rent and invest the difference so you can start building equity today no matter what you decide.
