The Cost of Renting vs. Buying Today [INFOGRAPHIC]

Some Highlights

• Historically, the choice between renting or buying a home in Shasta County has been a tough decision.
• Looking at the percentage of income needed to rent a median-priced home today (28.9%) vs. the percentage needed to buy a median-priced home (15.7%), the choice becomes obvious.
• Every market is different. Before you renew your lease again, find out if you can put your housing costs to work by buying this year!
