@westside.capital: Some demonise paying rent as dead money. To me, it's a housing expense to live where you need to be. Sure you can buy somewhere to live in but that'll likely come with compromises. Moving out further, away from work and family and friends. Eventually buying your own place is the goal. But if you need to stay where you are renting for lifestyle reasons, then rent-vesting is a great option. Stay where you are but invest your cash into an appreciating asset like property. It's an aleternate way of thinking to grow your wealth whilst not compromising on your lifestyle and not missing out on the capital growth benefits of property. ___________________________ Disclaimer: This is general advice and does not take into account your objectives, situations or needs.
