Should I buy or rent a home in Kathmandu?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Kathmandu, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Buying a home in Kathmandu 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 Kathmandu, as well as the availability of housing. Renting a home in Kathmandu can be a more affordable option, and it can also provide more flexibility if you are not sure how long you will be living in the city. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Kathmandu should be based on your individual needs and budget," said another expat in Kathmandu, Nepal.
