In some countries, most people prefer to rent a house rather than buying one. Describe the advantages and disadvantages of renting.

Globalisation has made travelling abroad or staying in a remote location far easier than ever before. If you are on a trip somewhere or planning to stay at a place for indefinite

time

it is always advantageous to

rent

a house rather than purchasing

one

.

To begin

with, people these days like change every so often, which means changing where they stay for any particular amount of

time

.

This

is easily possible because of the availability of ready to

move

in apartments, which can provide amenities on need basis.

For example

,

one

doesn't have to go through the hassle of moving all the furniture and utensils every

time

they

move

either.

This

makes them less dependent on their home appliances.

This

of course comes with its own disadvantages,

one

can never own too much stuff, which would be left behind if ever they have to

move

again. There is

also

a financial disadvantage if you choose to

rent

an accomodation,

for example

, you can pay a mortgage

instead

of

rent

and the property will be yours, but paying the same amount as

rent

defeats that purpose. Even if you want to settle down somewhere you can not be paying

rent

all your life. To conclude, if you are looking to settle down in

one

place, be it out of necessity or of choice, buying a house can be convenient.

However

, if you tend to

move

around different places or stay in any place for a short amount of

time

,

then

renting a house is always going to be a better option.
