wantobuy– are you sure you’re comparing apples to apples? You can rent a house in RB for $2200 a month.

I agree and I’ll go you one better. We rented a 3BR 2BTH 1300 sq ft condo in a nice area of RB for $1550/month. That place had room for a family with a kid, and lets yah save even more money to buy a house five years from now, at bargain prices.

Yes the rents have moved up, but you can still rent that kind of condo for about $1700, if you shop around.
