In some countries, some people are renting accomodation, while other are buying their own homes. Does renting accomodation have more advantages or more disadvantages than buying a place?
There is an ongoing debate regarding the choice of accommodation.
While
some people
prefer to live in rental units, others argue that they should have their own houses. While
acknowledging the merits of rental properties, this
essay argues that owning a house has more benefits
than the other choice. This
essay will demonstrate the significant benefits
and the potential drawbacks of renting and my opinion in detail with relevant examples.
On the one hand, the main positives of living in rental properties are a stress-free life and no financial burden. That is
to say that if people
pay a fixed amount to their homeowner every month for the property
they are staying in it allows them to lead a happy life without worrying about other expenses such
as building maintenance, utility bills, and property
tax. Such
a fixed budget helps people
to manage their financial stability as well as
prevents them from unpredictable expenses every month. Therefore
, civilians can lead their lives without any stress as a demand in finance is the majority cause of emotional problems. For instance
, it is evident that an average of 40% of people
are not interested in purchasing their own homes because of the fluctuations in interest rates.
On the other hand
, some disadvantages of such
a trend are the inability to have more control over living space and lack of ownership. In other words
, when citizens continue to live in a lodging accommodation, they will not gain ownership of the place even though they pay an inordinate amount of money as a rental fee. Despite the benefits
of rental budget management, people
do not get an opportunity to own a place which has more benefits

possessions would be worth much more in the future. Moreover
, it is a perfect way to invest money which amplifies the profit according to
the status of current real-estate market trends. For instance
, my relative has evaluated the market value of his house and it was estimated as $500,000, however
, he invested only $300,000 to purchase this
property
a few years ago.
In conclusion, although
rental housing has some advantages such
as calculated monthly expenditures and a stress-free life, I believe that the disadvantages outweigh the positives because people
fail to make profits by making proper
financial decision and lives without freedom.Add an article

coherence cohesion
For coherence and cohesion: The essay demonstrates a clear logical structure, with ideas and paragraphs that are organised in a logical manner. However, to achieve a higher score, consider utilising a wider range of linking words and phrases to better connect ideas within and across paragraphs. Also, aim to ensure that pronoun referencing is clear throughout your essay to avoid ambiguity.
task achievement
For task achievement: While the essay addresses the prompt, the response sometimes appears to lack a fully developed argument with respect to the advantages and disadvantages of renting vs owning. To improve, ensure that each advantage or disadvantage is explored in depth with clear and explicit explanations that directly relate to the question. Moreover, provide a more balanced discussion when comparing the two options before concluding which one has more weight. Back up your arguments with more specific and varied examples for higher effectiveness.
Word Count
IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.
A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.
Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
