This is a strange conversation. Guess it is my engineering background, I just look at the numbers.

To obtain the monthly utility of living in the Condo:

Rent 1,600
or
Own 1,745 (interest on 419k at 5%)
? principal, insurance, ...
500 rough estimate of property taxes
500 rough estimate of association fees.
total 2,745 (Carrying costs)

Gift from "owner" to renter is $1,100 per month.
