Renting vs. Owning:

Choosing whether to rent or buy your home is a major decision that not only affects your lifestyle, but also your financial health.  Owning and renting each have their advantages.  Join UWCA for this FREE workshop to get answers to the following questions and more:

• What are the best questions to ask myself to help make this important financial decision?

• When is renting beneficial?  When is home ownership beneficial?

• What are some steps to take to move from renting to purchasing a home?

• Who are the organizations/people I can turn to for assistance in making this decision?
