The New York Times recently republished its Rent vs. Buy calculator, designed to help our readers make one of life’s biggest financial decisions. But the choice to rent or buy a home is based on much more than just numbers — it’s also about neighborhoods, schools, family, and what the future might hold. We want to tell those stories, too. Have you gone through the buy-versus-rent debate in the past year or two? Did you think you were going to rent a home, but end up buying? Did you come close to making an offer on a home, then renew your lease instead? We want to hear from you.

We will not publish any part of your submission without contacting you first. Our editors read every submission, then follow up with a portion of the respondents via the contact information provided. We look forward to hearing from you.
