Moving around a lot incurs its own costs. Time, transportation, movers, deposits (which you're unlikely to get fully returned), new furniture... I think it's an additional "hidden" cost to renting that doesn't get talked about much.

The cost of moving from owned home to owned home is far higher. Brokers, lawyers and all the associated closing costs can be huge. And you still have to pay movers and worry about new furniture.

Yes, but you decide when to move from your owned home. My point is landlords can and do cause moving “churn” when you rent above and beyond when you’d move voluntarily.
