You'll get a better Home

In many parts of the country, it can be hard to find a good rental. All the best places are sold as condos. Money talks.

But this is a case-by-case issue: In Miami right now there are so many vacant luxury condos that owners will rent them out for a fraction of the cost of owning. Generally speaking, however, if you want a good Home in the best neighborhood, you're better off buying.
