Rent Vs. Buy Calculator

This custom calculator compares renting vs buying in a way that equalizes the two scenarios…so you’re comparing “apples to apples”. It takes into account all costs associated with buying and selling AND incorporates your home appreciation (‘ahem equity!) over the course of your ownership. It looks beyond cash-flow to give you a more thorough comparison.

How To Use It:

• Download it and fill out the yellow cells with your own figures. The Blue Text are also variables that can be adjusted where needed. There’s a lot happening here but play around with it and see the different outputs. 

• Even if you need a rent vs. buy scenario - you can get a fairly accurate look at your monthly payments/costs. 

• All in all it’s a comprehensive tool with possibly too much info. 

• Reach out if you have questions!
