I have read conflicting opinions on buying vs selling.  Using a calculator on one site it recommended selling and putting my money in a high yield savings because it would make more money vs renting.  However, those conditions I weighed we're assuming rent was under $2,000 monthly.  Then I read it's better to rent based on the 2% rule.  Just so many articles.  Your thoughts please...
