That only makes sense for absurdly aggressive speculators or people with the political connections to borrow money for 1% or less.

I have a fixed 15 year loan at 2.75%, which seems like a pretty good deal to me. Know where I can borrow a few hundred thou at 1%?

The interest rate isn’t only important, so is the principal.

Yes, sometimes buying makes sense, but sometimes renting makes sense as well.
