Is Renting Saving You Money? Think Again!
April 21, 2008 4:47 PM   Subscribe

Rental Rates Continue To Climb Rental prices have continued to rise for 24 consecutive quarters nationwide. This increase is the main reason housing prices don't stay down for too long. The rents set the bottom for the declines in home sales. The Keller Williams Guide Series' first book, "Your First Home" is a great source for first time home buyers. It shows if you can pay your rent, you can afford a home. Consult with your buyers and let them know that trying to time the market in the short term is the easiest way to to miss the timing for the long term. With interest rates as low as they are now, this is the time to get them to pull the trigger.

Are you a Realtor? Getting home buying advice from the NAR is like getting cancer advice from a tobacco company. Sorry, but I'm not drinking the Kool Aid.

Sorry, Brent. We don't take self-promotion lightly here. But please don't try again.

You work at Keller Williams posting about a book from Keller Williams.

Also, any Realtor who isn't a total weasel who be honest that whether it makes sense to rent or buy depends on the buyer, the specific market, the rent control situation that person is in, how handy they are, etc., etc.

I hope Keller Williams is happy you're besmirching their brand.
