Renting is a preference for many people rather than buying a home. It surely isn't just for the young, the insecure and the desperate, although defined by some homeowners as inferior species. Even though most Britons prefer the idea of buying a property in the long term, which definitely pays off, renting has many advantages as well:
  • Allows living in a size or style of property out of price range or in an area where affording to buy a home is out of the question.
  • Can save money and leave one in a better position to buy a home at a later date, allowing to move quickly when the market is favourable.
  • Spares time, enough to save a deposit, so affording a mortgage can become possible. A better mortgage deal can also happen.
  • Due to the delicacy of renting, it can become a substitute for buying and owning a home, which has hidden costs.
  • Permits focusing the usage of capital for more lucrative venture, such as to form a business or buy a property abroad where it can be a better investment.
  • It's possible to rent a fully furnished property, which spares the trouble of having to spend money furnishing for yourself.
  • Is well studied to familiarity so support by professional companies can accept it as regular basis occurrence. This one: http://www.houseremovalslondonuk.com for example, is good at multiple professional directions, therefore highly interested in that sort of analytics.
  • Gives freedom from DIY and maintenance costs.
  • Supports increasingly convenient flexibility, particularly useful when you don't expect to stay put for a long period of time.
It's strongly advised to rent for a period of time, say 6 months, allowing time to become familiar with the city parameters, the type of housing available and the costs, before concluding with a final purchase. Once done so, you join a cycle with less and less freedom.
