Recently, Nikhil Kamath, who has often advocated renting over buying, bought a house, stirring mixed reactions. This move highlights that housing choices are complex, driven by multiple factors. I believe renting is better than buying—but only as long as you have one place of your own. Here’s why: 1. Unpredictability: Renting offers flexibility for life’s uncertainties, like landlord decisions or rent hikes. Having a fallback home provides security. 2. Market Changes: Markets shift quickly, like during COVID-19. Renting lets you adapt without being tied down by property ownership. 3. Flexibility: Renting allows lifestyle upgrades or relocating without the hassles of buying/selling. 4. One Place Rule: Owning one property acts as a safety net, offering passive income and peace of mind. It’s not about renting vs. buying—it’s about having options for security and flexibility.
