Let's talk about renting vs. owning homes.

I was a renter for 20 some years, then twelve years ago acheived the Great American nightma--I mean dream--of home ownership.

Advantages of renting:

1. When the heat goes out at 3:00 am, call the landlord.
2. When the roof leaks, call the landlord.
3. When the pipes break, call a plumber. Send ;bill to landlord.
4   For those of us who are somewhat phobic of housecleaning, the    dirt never piles up more than 4 years deep. That's because you clean when you move in, and you clean when you move out.
