Most of the #renters I speak to these days see no clear path to #homeownership. What's new is that most of them aren't looking for one. Renting is not only cheaper than owning a home in most places today, it also gives renters back time in their day (maintenance is the landlord's job!) and flexibility if they need to move for some reason. Now, they're embracing these benefits and seeing renting it as the choice that it is, recently illustrated beautifully by this article in The Wall Street Journal from Veronica Dagher and Rachel Wolfe. Not making a value judgment one way or the other....homeownership is still great for lots of folks. But, renting is also great for many, depending on what they need and what they want to do with their money. Glad to see #renting getting the respect it deserves. #multifamily #buildtorent #sfr https://lnkd.in/ghnRsdPz
People often underestimate the power of renting. Loving the recognition!

9moI talk about this all the time - for a ton of people it makes the most sense and can be a responsible investment as well! Homeownership has so much amazing upside, but you also need to be prepared for everything that comes with it! It’s a very personal decision and specific to your life situation!
