Being a renter has certain freedoms unavailable to homeowners, and for some, it’s a lifestyle choice that can be totally worth it. There is little risk to renting; if the neighborhood takes a turn for the worse, a renter can pack up and move without the worry of sinking property values or loss of investment. Other rental perks include little property responsibility – if a pipe breaks the renter’s responsibility ends with a phone call – and incentives provided by property management that rarely extend to homeowners, even condo owners. Housing rental is a competitive business, and property amenities are often what sway renters to pay top dollar.
