Preguntas frecuentes
What costs are included in the buy side?
Mortgage payments, property taxes, insurance, maintenance, HOA fees, and opportunity cost of the down payment. Equity buildup is factored as a credit.
Does it account for home appreciation?
Yes. Enter an expected annual appreciation rate. The calculator factors in property value growth when computing the net cost of buying.
What is opportunity cost of the down payment?
If the down payment were invested instead of used for a home purchase, it would earn returns. The calculator accounts for this foregone investment growth.
When does buying typically break even?
It varies widely by market and inputs. The break-even analysis shows the specific year when cumulative buying costs become lower than cumulative renting costs for your scenario.
