On the historic side with a $75,0000 mortgage you'll spend about $9000 a year for everything. Renting for 4 months will cost you $10,000+. If you buy you won't have to figure out where to rent every year and can leave your belongings. So it depends on how long you would be here. Houses sell real fast in the historic side so you could buy a starter house and sell it later when you know where you want to be. We love it up here and won't leave the area if we upgrade later.
