What is a similar apartment or house renting for?

If there haven’t been steady raises in the past, you may be way more than 20% below market rates.

I see what u mean but also not quite the same comp available. To restrict by location, ranges from 25% more for new construction better quality to 20% less but less amenities.

Would be curious about your answer to the OP question too lol.

Due to a family situation we are looking to move to a different state. Normally we would sell our current home and buy a new home in our new location.

We are moving from Vegas to Sacramento and we are not sure how long we would stay in the new area. Thoughts?

I can take it financially, but wondering, If I absolutely needed to get out of buying it, what recourse do I have? Or could I go ahead, and refinance later (who knows rates at that time...)?
