Should I buy or rent a home in Bogota?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Bogota, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Buying a home in Bogota can be a great investment, as the city is growing rapidly and property values are increasing. However, it is important to consider the cost of living in Bogota, as well as the cost of purchasing a home. Renting a home in Bogota can be a more affordable option, as it allows you to live in the city without the commitment of a long-term mortgage. Additionally, renting can provide more flexibility if you are unsure of how long you will be living in Bogota. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Bogota should be based on your individual needs and financial situation," wrote a member who made the move to Bogota, Colombia.
