I'm a homeowner after years of renting and I much prefer it. First of all, when you rent you are forced to move whether you want to or not because the rent always goes up, so you are always moving to a place you can afford. And moving is both costly and stressful! Meanwhile, my mortgage will always stay the same (just don't be stupid and get a balloon mortgage). As for maintenance, not everyone is so lucky as to have a landlord who will fix things in an effective and timely manner. At least when something is broken I know it will be fixed when I want it fixed, using the level of quality that *I* choose and not some cheapskate landlord.
