Should I buy or rent a home in Guatemala City?

Answer this Question

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

"Buying a home in Guatemala City can be a great investment, as the city is growing rapidly and real estate prices are still relatively low. However, it is important to consider the cost of living in the city, as well as the safety and security of the area. Renting a home in Guatemala City can be a great option for those who are not ready to commit to buying a home, as it allows for more flexibility and can be more cost-effective in the short-term. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Guatemala City should be based on individual needs and preferences," remarked another expat who made the move to Guatemala City, Guatemala.
