## Logo

The mark is a level balance scale: a house on the left and a small apartment building on the right, in mint and amber on an ink square. The beam does not tip. The site compares renting and buying and does not pick a winner. Beside the mark, the wordmark is the name Should I Rent or Buy set in IBM Plex Sans.

Charts inside the guides are illustrations, not the logo. Do not present the site as a lender, a brokerage, or a government brand.
