Rent vs Buy Calculator in your browser

By Team Edtoolkits · Finance & accounting

Compare buying a home with a loan against renting and investing the difference, with EMI, maintenance, appreciation, rent rises and the year buying starts to win.

Use the guide alongside the working tool.

Open Rent vs Buy Calculator →

Get started

Enter the property price, loan details and the rent for a similar home.

Adjust and explore

Set the price growth, rent rise and the return you expect on investments.

Save and share

Read which option leaves more wealth, the break-even year and the year-by-year table.

Privacy and limits

Ignores income tax benefits on home loans (sections 24(b), 80C) and tax on investment gains, so results are before tax. Future growth rates are guesses. It compares money only, not comfort, security or freedom to move. Nothing you enter leaves your device.
