Renting vs Buying: Which is better for you?

Thumb_copy_of_renting_vs_buying

Posted in Buying by Meaghan McGlynn


The debate about whether it makes more financial sense to rent or buy has been raging for decades. Advocates of buying argue that when you pay rent you’re paying for someone else’s mortgage. When you buy, you are making an investment, which can significantly increase in value every year you live in the home.

Hawaii/Maui Real Estate Market Update

Thumb_19162_maui_gardnerreportq1_masthead

Posted in Hawaii/Maui Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


Hawaii’s economy continues to add jobs, but the rate of growth remains tepid. Over the past 12 months, the state added 3,200 new jobs, representing a growth rate of .5%. This lackluster growth may be due to the fact that the unemployment rate was a very healthy 2.7%. On Maui, employment growth dropped 2.2% year-over-year, and has been contracting for the past 14 months.

Big Island of Hawaii Real Estate Market Update

Thumb_19161_big-island_gardnerreportq1_masthead

Posted in Hawaii/Big Island Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


Hawaii’s economy continues to add jobs, but the rate of growth is tepid. Over the past 12 months, Hawaii added just 1,400 new jobs, representing a growth rate of 0.2%. Even with this lack of job formation, the state has a very healthy 2.8% unemployment rate. On the Big Island, year-over-year employment dropped 4.7% to 84,600 persons and has been negative for the past eight months.

Montana Real Estate Market Update

Thumb_19160_montana_gardnerreportq1_masthead

Posted in Montana Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


Over the past 12 months, Montana has added 4,800 new non-agricultural jobs. This represents an annual growth rate of a modest 0.9%, which is lower than the national growth rate of 1.7%. In the first quarter of the year, the state lost 1,300 non-agricultural jobs, which was a disappointment, but I remain hopeful we will see some improvement as we move through the balance of the year.

Oregon and Southwest Washington Real Estate Market Update

Thumb_19159_orswwa_gardnerreportq1_masthead

Posted in Oregon and Southwest Washington Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


Oregon added 29,500 new jobs over the past 12 months, representing an annual growth rate of 1.5%. The current pace of job growth continues the slowdown that started in mid-2018. I am not overly concerned by this slowdown in growth, as it is typical for this stage in the economic cycle.
