Rent or Buy? Use this fully interactive Rent vs. Buy calculator to get all of the REAL $$$ NUMBERS!

Does some one who is renting believe a Real Estate Agent when they say now is the time to Buy? How about instead of me telling you now is the time to buy I give you a fully interactive Rent vs Buy Calculator from the NYTimes. Would that eliminate any basis opinions you might be worrying about? This calculator does not care if you buy or rent. It just spits out the numbers according to what you punch in. Give it a try!
If you need to know the current mortgage rates, down payment you will need, property tax , or any other info to plug in the calculator, do not hesitate to ask me. Shoot me and email, text, or give me a call. I am here to help! :)
