The complexities of renting versus buying in Canada's current housing market, offering insights from both perspectives as a homeowner and strategic renter. We break down the financial implications, personal considerations, and market conditions that influence this important decision

• The decision between renting and buying should align with personal goals, financial situation, and long-term plans rather than societal pressure
