Question

1. a disadvantage of renting is _____.

a) more responsibilities
b) high initial costs
c) restricted activities
d) eligibility for tax deductions

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Renting typically has fewer responsibilities (like maintenance) compared to owning, so this is incorrect.
• Option B: Renting has low initial costs (no large down payment like buying a home), so this is incorrect.
• Option C: Renters often face restrictions (e.g., can't make major changes to the property, limited pet policies), so this is a disadvantage of renting.
• Option D: Renters are not eligible for tax deductions related to property ownership (like mortgage interest), so this is incorrect.

Answer:

C. restricted activities
