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

"Buying a home in Latvia can be a great investment, as the country has a strong economy and a growing real estate market. However, it is important to consider the costs associated with buying a home, such as closing costs, taxes, and maintenance fees. Renting a home in Latvia can be a more affordable option, as it does not require a large upfront investment. Additionally, renting can provide more flexibility, as it allows you to move more easily if your circumstances change. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Latvia should be based on your individual needs and financial situation," wrote a member who made the move to Latvia.
