Right at this time I own my own home, since my husband passed and if I was totally living alone on my own I would just rent. As it goes at this moment in time I can't just get up and leave. I first have to see if I can sell the house I am in, then see if I can get help to move out. As I am older it is to much trouble to maintain a home. If you own your own home one has to pay for property tax twice a year, find someone to help take care of the yard up keep. Plus if any repair work needs done on house itself then as home owner I have to find someone to help with that. Of course you do run into bad landlords who refuse to fix anything when you are a renter. The good part of owning my own home is that inside my own home I can pretty much do whatever I want. I can have animals such as cats or dogs if I want when renting you have to ask the landlord if you can have them or not. Any way that is my take on having a house.
