Rent to Own Homes is the perfect solution for aspiring homeowners who aren't quite ready, financially speaking. Our homes include a clause in the rental agreement which either gives you the option to buy or an obligation to buy after a certain time period. You make rent payments each month and a portion of those payments can count toward your down payment. Should you decide to buy, the excess money can be applied to the home purchase. Entering into a rent-to-own agreement typically means signing a formal legal contract. The contract should specify the terms of the agreement and whether you're obligated to buy the home or simply have the option to do so. A rent-to-own agreement can be an excellent option if you're not quite ready, financially speaking, but want to get your foot in the door of homeownership!
