Buy when mortgage rates come down.

Rent to own

Definitely rent now. If mortgage rates come down, buy but only if it’s a better investment than putting your down payment into the stock market (once you factor in cost of rent vs. home maintenance costs, interest, tax breaks, etc.).

Depends on the location

And price

Rent to own! How big is it, btw?

I am on my notice period and almost 1 and a half month left. I am ISTQB Certified and have a good skillset as compared to the current market requirements. But I am not getting many calls for the interview.
Is it because of the notice period ? Coz many companies look for immediate joiners or someone who can join within 15 days.
