If you're thinking about whether to rent or buy this year, you're not alone. It’s one of the most common questions I get, and for good reason. Between rising rents and shifting market conditions, the answer isn’t always obvious.
In this video, I walk you through what renting and buying really look like in 2025. It’s not just about monthly costs, but about what makes the most sense for your financial and lifestyle goals.

I also share the story of a recent client who assumed buying was off the table. She was surprised to learn she could become a homeowner with less money out of pocket than expected — and skip another year of rising rent.
Three important takeaways:
Renting may seem easier, but usually costs more long term
Buying brings ownership, predictability, and tax opportunities
Many renters already qualify and don’t know it
If you're considering your next move, this could be your starting point.
