The financial benefit of buying a home over renting is the highest in Seattle, according to a report released on CNNMoney. Out of 23 cities, we were ranked first when it comes to the amount of money saved and the increased value of properties purchased in lieu of renting. Granted, the study also assumes that you're investing the money you save rather than spending it on a sweet vaca or a new Gates-ian entertainment system, but that's neither here nor there. Buying wins! [Trulia]
