Different people have different perspectives on whether to rent or own a place to live. In my opinion, renting accommodation can never be considered ideal compared to the ownership of
houses
. I will discuss and analyse my point of view in detail in
this
 essay.
Although
 rented apartments or
houses
 offer some benefits to tenants, the drawbacks are countless. People just need to spend a fixed small amount of their budget on rent and they do not have to worry about the repair and maintenance of their rented homes as
this
 is the headache of landlords.
On the contrary
, renters are obliged to follow the rules and regulations so they cannot make any alterations to the rented accommodations according to their will.
For instance
, I wanted to hang paintings and mirrors in my home but our landowner did not allow me to do
this
. He declined my request on the account that nailing will damage the walls of his property.
On the other hand
, buying a house is the perfect idea because of its numerous benefits. The most significant advantage of owning a place is investing money in the right thing.
This
 is the best investment as it saves people millions of dollars that they would have spent on renting their
houses
. A recent survey in New York revealed that an average person can save two million dollars easily in his lifetime if he avoids renting by buying a house. In conclusion, the ownership of

 is a great investment in life; whereas, renting causes many hurdles to enjoying the freedom of changes to living places. The merits of renting,
therefore
, are way less than the benefits of owning accommodations.
