• A Rent to Own is simply a lease combined with an exclusive option to purchase the property within a specified period of time. A portion of the rent will be put toward the purchase price or down payment. When you have saved a down payment (typically within 1-3 years), you will have the option to purchase the house.

​

• Rent to Own is an excellent solution for tenants with poor or limited credit history, who do not currently qualify for a typical mortgage.  Another common reason we see is insufficient length of employment.

​

• With a Rent to Own, the purchase price is guaranteed at the beginning of the lease term with your initial Option fee (down payment) paid by yourself, the tenant-buyer.  This initial option fee is then 100% credited towards your future purchase when you successfully qualify for your own financing at the end of the term.

​

• A Rent to Own can work as an automatic savings plan towards your future purchase while giving you time to repair or establish your credit rating and establish a sufficient employment history during the term.

​

• With a Rent to Own you benefit today by living in the home of your choice that you plan to purchase. This eliminates future market surprises and gets you started on the path to home ownership today.

​

• Minimum Cash Upfront

  While we do require a minimum initial payment in order to get started, the GREAT NEWS is that it's 100% credited towards your future purchase of the property. We'll help you build on that foundation throughout our program to help you save up a significant down payment towards your purchase. This allows you to defer expensive initial costs that come with conventional bank financing such as a larger down payments (up to 35%) plus closing costs.

​

• Flexible Lease Term

  The lease is typically based on a 1 to 3 year term. We find that most of our clients are typically able to obtain their own financing after one or two years. The lease term works as a time benefit for you - giving you time to establish or restore credit, save up a larger down payment and lengthen your employment history. You will work with our associated mortgage professionals to determine how long of a term you require.

​

• Time is on Your Side

  A Lease Option gives you the time you need to repair or establish your credit rating, save for a larger down payment and perhaps even grow equity in the property. This makes it a very appealing investment for yourself, the tenant-buyer, as you are spending very little money to control a valuable and potentially very profitable investment, while the purchase price of your home remains unaffected from market appreciation.

​

• Help When You Need It

  Our Buyers Selection Program gives you direct access to our associated mortgage broker team that specializes in helping clients like yourself successfully qualify for their own financing at the end of a Rent to Own term.  When you sign up for our program you'll work one-on-one with our mortgage broker team to create a step-by-step action plan custom tailored to your situation so that you will know exactly what steps you need to take and in what order.

​

• Guaranteed Purchase Price

  The purchase price is a conservative estimate of the future value of the property at the end of your lease term. It is established at the beginning of the lease term and is guaranteed for the entire length of that term. If, by the end of your term, the market appreciates strongly and your property is appraised higher than your Lease Option price, then you will benefit directly from the additional appreciation.

​

• Equity Growth

  An initial Option fee is required at the beginning of the lease term which will be credited towards the future purchase. In addition, a portion of each monthly lease payment will be credited towards the purchase as well. It's like building equity while you rent, ultimately putting you in a stronger position to qualify for your own financing. You also benefit directly from all equity appreciation during the term when you complete the purchase.

​

• No Hidden Fees

  Your monthly lease payments are inclusive of the following fees: rent payments, property taxes, building insurance, condo fees (if applicable) and Lease Option credits. You are required to set up and maintain your own services/utilities such as electricity, gas, water, sewer, and personal contents insurance as well as optional utilities such as telephone, cable and internet.
