Math & Statistics working towards home ownership: If you were going to rent a studio apt in a centrally located downtown area such as a Union Sq Park or Greenwich village, you would be looking @ approximately $3500 (and that's the min! $4K for a doorman) per month for them to be in a safe elevator building with laundry and a resident super. Yearly, that equates to $42K You multiply that by (4) years, and you have $168K Instead of putting that toward rent, invest it towards home ownership @ "105"
