I really think that this has to be done with my final paper, so the reader will be able to understand what I am trying to get across before I start comparing the two options. With the comparison part of my essay “why renting is better than buying a house”, I think I am going to have to do some more research so I can have more information on my behalf to try and persuade the reader.
