Should I buy or rent a home in Strasbourg?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Strasbourg, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Whether you decide to buy or rent a home in Strasbourg is a decision that should be made after carefully considering numerous aspects of the city and its real estate market. Strasbourg is an attractive city for living with many amenities like access to culture, interesting architecture, and a vibrant arts scene. Furthermore, the economy is relatively strong and supports a strong real estate market. When deciding to buy or rent, expenses such as taxes, insurance, and maintenance should be taken into account, as well as accessibility, potential for appreciation, and the current housing market conditions. Ultimately, you should consider your needs, budget, and desired lifestyle in Strasbourg when determining whether to buy or rent a home," explained one expat living in Strasbourg, France.
