Should I buy or rent a home in Cali?

Answer this Question

If you have not spent a lot of time in Cali, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...

"Buying a home in Cali can be a great investment, as the city is known for its vibrant culture and beautiful scenery. However, it is important to consider the cost of living in the area, as well as the availability of housing. Renting a home in Cali can be a great option for those who are not ready to commit to a long-term purchase, as it allows for more flexibility and can be more cost-effective in the short-term. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Cali should be based on individual needs and preferences," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Cali, Colombia.

"We are currently renting, but when I get there permanently next year, we will be buying. We actually were able to sign up for a government plan through a local bank. We make monthly deposits & in a year, they'll offer us our mortgage," commented one expat who made the move to Cali, Colombia.
