But maybe the biggest consideration boils down to this \u2013 will you buy your next home or choose to rent instead?<\/p>\n<p>That decision ultimately depends on your current situation and your future plans. Here are two important factors to help you decide what\u2019s right for you.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Expect Rents to Keep Going Up<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The graph below uses <a href=\"https:\/\/www.census.gov\/housing\/hvs\/files\/currenthvspress.pdf\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">data<\/a> from the <em>Census<\/em> to show how rents have been climbing steadily since 1988:<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.simplifyingthemarket.com\/content\/images\/20230912\/20230913-Median-Asking-Rent-Since-1988.png?ssl=1\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/files.keepingcurrentmatters.com\/content\/images\/20230912\/20230913-Median-Asking-Rent-Since-1988.png?ssl=1\"><\/a>Rents have been going up consistently over the long run. If you choose to rent, there\u2019s a risk your rental payment will go up each time you renew your lease. Having a higher rental expense may not be something you want to deal with every year.<\/p>\n<p>When you buy a home with a fixed-rate mortgage, it helps stabilize your monthly housing payment.<strong> <\/strong>This allows you to lock in your monthly payment for the duration of your home loan. That keeps your payments steady and predictable for the long haul. <em>Freddie Mac<\/em> sums it up like this:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201c. . . <\/em><strong><em>homeowners with fixed-rate loans will see little to no change to their monthly housing cost over the life of their loan<\/em><\/strong><em>. You can be confident in knowing that your mortgage payments won\u2019t change much in the long term, even when life\u2019s other costs do.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h4><strong>Owning Your Home Comes with Unique Benefits<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aarp.org\/brandamp\/anywhere-buy-instead-of-rent.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">According<\/a> to <em>AARP<\/em>, buying your next home is a better long-term strategy than renting:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cThough each option has pros and cons, <\/em><strong><em>buying provides more pros, with a broader range of benefits<\/em><\/strong><em>.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>To help you choose what you\u2019ll do after you sell, here are just a few of the benefits of homeownership that article covers:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Owning your home can help you <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.simplifyingthemarket.com\/2023\/08\/15\/equity-is-a-game-changer-for-homeowners-looking-to-sell\/?a=375140-ca8522ad04357da9549c08492a932f70\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>save money<\/strong><\/a><strong> for the future.<\/strong> Your home, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.simplifyingthemarket.com\/2023\/09\/11\/planning-to-retire-your-equity-can-help-you-make-a-move\/?a=375140-ca8522ad04357da9549c08492a932f70\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">equity<\/a> you build as a homeowner, can provide generational wealth that could be passed on to loved ones, giving them a better life.<\/li>\n<li><strong>You might not have to pay a monthly mortgage payment at all.<\/strong> If you have enough equity to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.simplifyingthemarket.com\/2023\/09\/01\/homeowners-have-a-lot-of-equity-right-now-infographic\/?a=375140-ca8522ad04357da9549c08492a932f70\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">buy<\/a> your next home outright, you wouldn\u2019t have a monthly mortgage payment.
