Renting vs. Buying

This episode of Mitten Money explores one of the biggest financial decisions many people face: renting versus buying a home. Will and Kevin discuss the hidden costs of homeownership, including maintenance, repairs, property taxes, insurance, closing costs, and the time commitment that comes with owning a home.They also explain why buying isn't always the best financial move, especially if you expect to move within a few years or aren't prepared for unexpected expenses. The conversation emphasizes that there is no one-size-fits-all answer and encourages listeners to weigh both the financial and lifestyle factors before making a decision.
