Should I buy or rent a home in Milan?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Milan, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"The decision to buy or rent a home in Milan depends on your individual needs and situation. Buying a home is generally more expensive than renting, but for some people it is a better investment and a more stable option than renting. Owning a home also provides more freedom to personalize and make changes to your home. Renting a home, on the other hand, allows for more flexibility and the ability to move easily in the event of a job or lifestyle change. Ultimately, it should be your decision to make after careful consideration of your financial situation and plans for the future," said another expat in Milan, Italy.
