Frequently Asked Questions About Rent To Own:

How Does The Program Work? We will typically sell you the home on a Rent to Own program. Our buyers love it because this allows them to live in the home while having the time to clean up their credit, and also will allow you to move in much faster than a typical house purchase with a mortgage. Here’s how it works.

  1. You will pay a down payment upon move-in that will go towards the purchase price of the home.
  2. You will make monthly rent payments every month. (Every ON-Time rent payment will be reported to a credit agency to help build your credit.)
  3. While living in the house, you will have 2 years to work on your credit. Once your credit is cleaned up, you can get a bank mortgage and the deed will then transfer to you. We can connect you with an amazing mortage broker to help make this happen. We can do longer terms and/or options to renew if needed.

How Much Down Payment Do I Need?  Since we have a lot of people applying for our homes, the larger the down payment you have the more likely you are to be chosen for this home. (This down payment will apply to the purchase price).

How Fast Can I Move In? You can be in the home in as little as 7 days.

Can I Buy The Home With No Down Payment? No. Even if you have really good credit, bank mortgages still require you to put 3% to 5% down. The more you have to pay or trade, the higher your chance of being accepted, and the better your terms.

Do I need to have good credit? No. What the owners are looking for is a family that: has a good stable job history, can afford the monthly payments, and can afford to put money down towards the purchase of the house.  Once you are in the house, you will then have time to work on your credit.

What else do I need to pay for? There is a $25 application fee that apartments.com charges you for.  Then once selected as the tenant/buyer, you will need to turn on the utilities and electric in your name. Pay the deposit. And once in the home, you are responsible for any maintenance & repairs just as if you are buying the house.

How Long Do is The Rent To own Program For? You will have 2 years to work on your credit. Once your credit is cleaned up, you can get a bank mortgage and the deed will then transfer to you. We can connect you with an amazing mortage broker to help make this happen. We can do longer terms and/or options to renew if needed.
