    <p><a href="https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/build-buy-renovate"><strong>Building a house vs. buying a house</strong></a>—which makes more sense for today’s investor? With <strong>home prices rising</strong> faster than many of us have ever seen before, more and more real estate investors are asking whether or not building their rentals is a smarter idea. And who can blame them? <strong>Building a rental property</strong> can seem like a great way to <strong>minimize acquisition costs</strong>, but this is only true in certain circumstances, which many investors just won’t fit into. </p><p>Welcome to <strong>Live Takes</strong> where <strong>Henry Washington</strong>, investor and <a href="https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/contributors/on-the-market-podcast"><em>On The Market</em></a><em> </em>guest host, joins David Greene for a live real estate Q&amp;A.
