Buyer vs renter: what to prioritise
| Buyers | Renters |
|---|---|
| Resale demand, liquidity, and future rentability | Commute, noise, and convenience day to day |
| Community rules, fees, and long-term building condition | Seasonality, winter sun, and walkability |
| School access, parking, and “second home” logistics | Internet, furnished quality, and landlord responsiveness |
| Rental licence feasibility (if you plan to let) | Contract terms, deposit, and utilities clarity |
