What is your opinion on buying a house or renting one?

What is your opinion on buying a house or renting one? The best way for me is to buy houses or apartments, lend them to others, and live in a rented one. Houses of my owned properties should be lent to foreign expats; apartments should be lent to students in prestigious or medical universities.

1. Rephrase to make the meaning clearer.
I can understand why you would rent your apartment or house to those kind of people. Do you currently own a house or apartment building?

Yes, I have several houses and apartments. I'm renting houses to diplomats, expats and apartments to students while living in a small flat. I prefer to live in a rented flat because it's easier for me to move depending on the stage of my life. Also, renting property to others has some advantages on taxes compared to living in it.

1. You can also say "multiple."
2. Use "and" to connect words of the same part of speech or clauses that are to be taken jointly.

Japan is one of the most expensive countries to build. The leading causes are price hikes for crucial building materials, skills shortages, increased labor wages, and delays in supply that elongate construction timelines. Additionally, commodity prices like steel and resins are increasing while the weaker yen hurts imports. The increased costs are passed to customers.
