About this calculator

Compare two paths over the same period: buying with a home loan, or renting a similar home and investing the down payment and the monthly difference.

How is this calculated?

Buying: home value grows at the price-rise rate; net worth = home value − loan balance. Renting: the down payment and buying costs are invested, and each month the difference between owning costs (EMI + upkeep) and rent is invested too.
