Since I've been coming to TV since 2010, the prices for new and pre-owned homes has far outpaced inflation consistently. Saying that, it is NO guarantee that will continue! I have always been a buyer with the philosophy that the landlord bought the home, is making some money or breaking even on rent, and getting all the equity increase. There is no sure answer but, short term (I would say four years or less) renting may make sense, but given your perameters, I would be a buyer.
