Buy vs. Rent

A group of researchers at Florida International University recently finished a study that compared the long term economic advantage of buying vs. renting.  The study looks at the "hurdle rate," that looks at whether a person would accumulate more wealth by purchasing a home or investing money elsewhere.  In all 23 markets they studied, they found that buying a home was more advantageous. 

Here is a quick video summary of their findings.
