The One Where You Stop Paying Someone Else’s Mortgage

I had a buyer tell me the other day, “It just feels safer to rent right now.”
And while I understand the hesitation, here’s the reality:

Rent is 100% interest.
It builds no equity, no appreciation, no long-term return. You’re just helping your landlord buy their second property.

Meanwhile, in the East Valley, high inventory and builder incentives mean buyers have leverage and a real shot at building long-term wealth instead of continuing the rent cycle.

💸 If you're spending $2,400/month on rent, that's nearly $29,000 a year gone. That’s a down payment, a backyard, and a lot of dog treats.

One couple I worked with was paying $2,100/mo in rent and had no idea they could afford a mortgage around the same. Now? They own a 3-bed home with a yard and pay less monthly, with equity growing each month.
