an 1800 square foot home with full basement and garage on a 1 acre lot with 3 car-garage for less than $1400, and that includes escrow and PMI.

I'd be sick paying $1500/rent for something like that in SLC/Utah County. Ouch..

Granted, you already have your landscaping included (and you can keep the down payment), so I guess it is all fair..

I hate rent..
