    But… but… but you still have to pay for maintenance and repair.

    Ok I’m half kidding, given you still have to pay those things but depending on how the math works it can still be cheaper to own.

      It’s always cheaper to own given you live an adult life for at least like 15 years. The rub is whether or not you can afford the upfront costs to get a property.

      Also you pay for maintenance and repair and taxes and all that nonsense in your rent, it’s just one bill instead of multiple.
