So why pay for something that is only temporary, when you could be paying off something that is going toward actual ownership?

Rent: If anything happens to the house, the landlord is responsible to having it paid to be fixed.

Buy: You literally have to pay for everything.

Personally, I'd only rent unless starting a family, less responsibility and I could decide to get a newer place easier.
