Should You Rent or Sell Your Home in Today’s Market?

If your home has been on the market but the right offer hasn’t come along, you may be wondering: should I rent it instead? Many homeowners today are finding themselves in this exact situation and turning into what we call “accidental landlords.”

The decision depends on your goals. Renting can provide steady income, but it also comes with responsibilities like maintenance, finding tenants, and managing lease agreements. Selling, on the other hand, may give you the financial freedom to move forward with your next chapter sooner.

Market conditions in Colorado right now make both options worth considering. Low inventory means buyers are still looking but rising HOA dues and insurance costs have made some multifamily homes tougher to sell, which is why renting can sometimes bridge the gap.
