• Rent money is applied to purchase of the home: Every month a portion of
your rent payment will be credited towards your down payment or off of
the sales price.
• Peace of mind: You can lock the sales price when you rent it. Before you
actually buy it! And can walk out of the deal later on if you change your
mind.
• Credit problems are okay: Qualification restrictions are lesser. You will
be approved at the sole discretion of the seller.
• Rapid equity growth: Home equity accumulates much faster than with
conventional financing through a bank or lender.
• Minimum Cash Out of Pocket equals Increased Buying Power: When you
purchase a home conventionally, you must pay at least 5% -20% down
along with closing costs and pre-paids. When you buy with a Rent to Own,
you only pay first month's rent and a small option deposit.
• Little or no down payment at closing: Since you have given the seller an
option deposit and you have been receiving monthly rent credits, there will
frequently be very little or nothing left to pay for a down payment at
closing.
• No taxes and less liability: Since you do not own the home (yet), you will
not have to pay property taxes and your liability will be considerably
reduced.
