Rent $500 to $3000 a month... closing cost.... $1500.... how do you not get that back? Find a better bank to do your closing.

Or you pay rent of $1500 a month for a house for 5 years. 1500 * 12 * 5 = $90,000 how the hell is it not cheaper to buy?
I don't know where you're closing for $1500, but here in NY, closing costs on a house or condo with a purchase price around $400K are north of $20K when all said and done. It seriously prohibits refinancing around here.
