Is It Better to Buy or Rent?

Check out this neat Rent Vs. Buy Calculator. This is one of the most user friendly calculators I've seen. Many are riddled with numbers that aren't very easy to understand for someone who doesn't invest in real estate often, but this has a graph and will tell you in clear terms how much money you'll save or lose. So, if you're on the fence about buying, this calculator is definitely worth your while.

About Me

I am a 25-year hospitality professional turned real estate broker and investor. Originally from Louisville, Kentucky, I have been blessed to live in some amazing places during the course of my career. Key Largo, Florida and Sea Island, Georgia, Southern California, Upstate New York, and numerous locales throughout the Midwest are just a few of the places I have called home. I have made Wilmington my home since 2002 and turned a passion and love of real estate into my vocation. I have been an active real estate investor for eleven years. I have purchased, rehabbed and sold dozens of homes over the course of my real estate career. Over the past three and a half years, I have dedicated myself to the practice of general brokerage. I am a REALTOR with Keller Williams Realty and offer traditional sales and marketing for buyers and sellers. I also offer consulting services to other investors. I am a past Board Member of the Coastal Carolina Real Estate Investors association. Whether for retirement, professional relocation, lifestyle changes, or investment, I have the local knowledge and aptness to help you achieve your real estate goals.
