It's gotten a lot more expensive to buy a home — making renting a more attractive option.

As mortgage rates and home prices have risen, some who had planned to buy a home have decided to rent instead — because it can be cheaper.

For some, that means putting off buying their first home. For others, it means holding on to the home they own, but renting a different one to live in.

If either of these sounds like you, we want to hear from you.
