Should I buy or rent a home in Stavanger?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Stavanger, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Whether you should buy or rent a home in Stavanger depends on your individual circumstances. If you plan to stay in Stavanger for a long period of time, buying a home may be a better option as it can provide you with a stable and secure living situation. On the other hand, if you are only planning to stay in Stavanger for a short period of time, renting a home may be a more cost-effective option. Additionally, if you are not sure how long you will be staying in Stavanger, renting may be a better option as it allows you to be more flexible.
