Should I buy or rent a home in Shekou?

If you have not spent a lot of time in Shekou, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...

"When considering whether to buy or rent a home in Shekou, it is important to consider your long-term plans. Purchasing a home in Shekou is a good option for those who plan on staying in the area for several years. Buying a home also offers the potential for a financial gain in the future if the value of the property increases. However, renting may be more cost-effective in the short-term, and allows more flexibility and freedom since tenants can choose to move at the end of their lease. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent should depend on an individual's own budget, timeline and goals," commented one expat who made the move to Shekou, China, China.
