Here's a calculator (from The New York Times) that can help you make your decision.

If you expect the home to rise in value at least in line with inflation, then it is an investment, because the mortgage principal that you pay builds equity in the home, which you will get back when you sell. Rent, on the other hand, gives you no return on your money: it's just gone, which is analogous to the…

A 20% down payment is not always necessary; you can put as little as 3.5% down with an FHA loan (or 5% with conventional).
