Buying vs. Renting: Merrick Manor Wants Your Feedback on the Ongoing Debate

As The Astor Companies closes in on completing luxury condominium project Merrick Manor in Coral Gables, the longstanding debate about whether it makes more sense to purchase or rent a residence wages on.

Potential buyers are wrestling with this decision despite mounting evidence that in today’s market – and especially in Coral Gables – it is a no-brainer. Buying is the right move for many reasons.

For renters who are passing up the opportunity to build wealth through investing in real estate, the team at Merrick Manor wants to hear directly from you. Leave a comment below this post addressing the simple question: Why are you still renting?

In general, the advantages that come with owning versus buying include:

  • When considering whether to use your monthly payment to either pay down your landlord’s mortgage or pay down your own, the choice is simple
  • Not having to deal with a landlord
  • Certainty of knowing where you will be living for the long term, as opposed to signing a one-year lease and restarting the process a year later
  • Avoiding annual rental rate increases that are at the discretion of the owner

Located at 301 Altara Avenue, Coral Gables, FL 33146, the 10-story, 227-residence Merrick Manor is just steps away from the luxurious Shops at Merrick Park.
