No constant anxiety that you’re going to be serially priced out of your own home or that the landlord is going to decide they’re giving the apartment to their nephew or something is worth quite a lot.
I’m not against renting but the rate at which prices are rising in many areas is unbelievable and the inherent instability it brings frankly sucks. It makes renewal time every year needlessly stressful.
If prices were more stable over long periods and one could more easily secure assurance that the owner isn’t going to rugpull them so one could only move every decade or so at most frequent that’d be easier to deal with.
- petcat 2mo agoThere is virtually no security in renting outside of whatever landlord-tenant laws your municipality will offer you. The landlord can simply say that they're not going to renew your lease at the end of the year because the neighbors don't like your barking dog. And you have no recourse.
