Home Decision: Rent vs Buy

Compare rent vs buy with real assumptions, net worth projections, and scenario analysis. Understand your home decision clearly before you commit

Home Decision helps you compare renting vs buying using real assumptions, transparent modeling, and market-specific logic.

Make one of life’s biggest financial decisions with more clarity. Instead of relying on basic calculators, this app lets you build realistic scenarios and understand how outcomes change over time.

MODEL YOUR REAL SITUATION

Create scenarios based on your actual numbers:

• Home price, rent, and down payment
• Mortgage rate, taxes, and transaction costs
• Investment returns and inflation
• Time horizon and mobility risk

See how buying and renting compare based on what you enter, not generic averages.

BUILT FOR REAL-WORLD MARKETS

Home Decision adapts to different countries with market-specific rules:

• Mortgage structures and compounding
• Country-specific tax treatment
• Local default assumptions
• Optional live economic data

This makes results more realistic than one-size-fits-all calculators.

UNDERSTAND THE FULL PICTURE

Go beyond a simple answer and see what drives the result:

• Net worth projections over time
• Break-even timeline
• Price-to-rent ratio
• User cost of housing
• Mobility risk and early-exit scenarios

The app shows both the outcome and the reasoning behind it.

TRANSPARENT AND EXPLAINABLE

Every result is based on visible assumptions:

• Interest rates and data sources
• Inflation and return assumptions
• Tax treatment
• Behavioral factors such as investment discipline

There is no hidden logic. You can see exactly what influences your outcome.

COMPARE MULTIPLE SCENARIOS

Test different strategies and situations:

• Compare up to four scenarios side by side
• Explore different cities, prices, or rates
• Understand trade-offs clearly

Ideal for evaluating multiple options before making a decision.
