Knowing whether to sign a lease or a stack of mortgage papers is not always clear. But Rentjungle.com is shedding light on the matter with a new guide to cities that compares renting versus buying by considering the combined cost of average mortgages, taxes and insurance and comparing those to average rents. Much of this data is drawn from the over 1 million apartment ads Rentjungle.com analyzes each month. As of September, the best places to dive into the home market were Houston and Cleveland. In these cities, buying is 52% and 40% cheaper than renting. In contrast, the housing markets in San Francisco and Seattle are so hot that in the former it’s 54% cheaper to rent and in the latter it’s 49%.
