Should I buy or rent a home in Argentina?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Argentina, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Buying a home in Argentina can be a great investment, as the country has a strong economy and real estate market. However, it is important to consider the cost of living in the area you are looking to buy in, as well as the cost of the home itself. Renting a home in Argentina 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 Argentina should be based on your individual needs and financial situation," said another expat in Argentina.
