Both paths use equal upfront money and the same monthly budget. The renter invests the down payment and buying costs. Each month the cheaper path invests the difference in housing outflows.

BEHIND THE NUMBERS

How this calculation works

The renter initially invests the buyer’s down payment plus buying costs. Each month, both paths have the larger of rent and ownership outflow available. The cheaper path invests the difference, ensuring equal external cash budgets.

Ownership outflow is EMI plus assumed upkeep on the changing property value. Loan interest uses the monthly reducing balance. After loan repayment, the buyer can invest the resulting monthly difference.

Buyer’s net assets = home sale value less selling costs and outstanding loan, plus the buyer’s investments. Rent rises after each 12 months. Property appreciation and investment returns compound monthly.

This comparison excludes property capital-gains taxes, home-loan tax deductions, rental deposits and renovation. Lifestyle, mobility and housing security are outside the numerical result.

A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS

Before you make a plan

No. The renter invests the money that the buyer uses upfront, and both paths use the same monthly budget. Any lower monthly housing cost is invested by that path.

Not necessarily. Compare net equity after outstanding debt and sale costs with the renter’s invested assets, using realistic appreciation and rent assumptions.
