Anyone in South Florida debating whether to buy or rent should buy as soon as possible, a new report shows. The numbers don’t lie: buying simply makes more economic sense today in our market.
A new South Florida Business Journal article cites a national study from Clever Real Estate subsidiary Home Bay, which concluded that South Florida’s market favors buying over renting. The key reason: a typical monthly mortgage payment in South Florida is just $146 higher than the region’s median monthly rent.
“Because Miami residents aren’t making substantial savings each month on rent, they’re better off buying in the long term,” Clever Real Estate data writer Sam Huisache states in the report, which ranks South Florida as the sixth best place to buy a home out of the nation’s 50 most populated metro areas.
