Renting or owning: what changes
One-time costs
Buying adds transfer tax, legal fees and an inspection, paid on closing.
Monthly costs past the mortgage
Property tax, strata and insurance are on top of the mortgage. Compare the total with your rent.
Flexibility
A lease is easier to leave. Owning suits staying put for some years.
