Should I Rent or Should I Buy?

Many people ask themselves the question "Should I rent or should I buy?" when they are ready to make that step in moving into a new space.

Meet Tim. Tim needs to move. Here are some possible reasons he needs to go. Perhaps this is about to be Tim's first place out of school, perhaps he's recently divorced and he's starting over, or perhaps the rental contract on his current residence is about to expire and he needs to decide whether he's staying another 2 years or if he's going to move into another residence with more space. It all comes down to what you desire and how much money you can reasonably spare.

If you can afford a mortgage rather do that over renting a home. When you rent a space you are giving your money to someone else. When you pay a mortgage you are working towards something - owning your own home, condo, studio apartment, or the like. Paying a mortgage may cost more than just renting a space, but remember that you are working towards your goal. Try to find a place that you can reasonably afford along with other living expenses. If you can do that, rather get a mortgage over renting.

The licensed Bahamas real estate agents at Damianos Sotheby's International Realty can help you find your new residence. Whether you plan on renting a space for now or have decided to purchase real estate, we can assist. Just contact us with your Bahamas real estate desires and we will put the information together for you.

How To Find The Right Real Estate Agent for You

So you have decided that now is the time for you to move out of that rental townhouse you are in and move into your own home. You have searched for real estate online for your area of interest but you don't know who these people are associated with these properties. Chances are you have never met. So how do you decide which real estate agent you want to work with?

Well I guess you could just pick up the phone and call in about a particular property or you could send a request via email or contact form, but you still don't know who this real estate agent is. You may have read the agents bio and that gives you some information to who this person is.

You may be interested in multiple properties and each of these real estate options have different real estate agents representing the property. After viewing a few properties with different agents you may feel a certain trust and bond with one agent - Rather stick to that agent.

The best way to shop for a home (or whatever you feel like purchasing in real estate) is to have one agent represent you and your interests. Just like having a lawyer to protect your interests, you want a real estate agent to think for you and to get you that property you are really interested in.
