Buying or Leasing: Weighing the Costs of Real Estate Choices (EP.21)

Welcome back to The Rational Reminder Podcast. Today's episode is focused on the question of investing in real estate. It is still a common conundrum for investors and even those who may not consider themselves active investors, whether to buy or to rent a property. As you may imagine it is not a very simple issue and the answer does require some serious thought and calculation. But our hosts do their best to lay out some of the most important concerns and factors in trying to find the answer. Before getting into the meat of the episode however, we also look at some general recent news from the money world including developments from Investor's Group, the market's downturn and the low year we have all had as well as thinking about Canadian small cap stocks. For all this and more, be sure to tune in!
