Buying vs. Rent to Own Homes

To buy a house, you (1) look at the homes available for purchase, (2) pick the house you want, (3) pay the seller the cost of the home and (4) you get the house. That’s the basic gist of the traditional home buying process.

All the steps of the traditional home buying process are present in the rent to own process. The difference is that renting to own has an additional step between Step 2 and Step 3. Step 2.5 is to rent the home for a maximum of three years until you are ready to continue to Step 3.

During Step 2.5, you’re working on improving your credit score, building a steady job history and saving up a down payment so that you can qualify for financing. Once you have financing, you can move on to Step 3.

Rent to own is a good way to prepare for buying a property. Once you do buy, you won’t have to spend money on rent any longer. So, the sooner you can buy, the better.

Rent to Own Realtors

Realtors are highly skilled at informing potential buyers and prospective sellers about rent to own. A realtor can help find the second half of the deal you have been searching for.

Unfortunately, not many realtors are interested in rent to own because there isn’t a lot of money for them in the process. In the past, that would constitute a serious roadblock to rent to own; however, there are plenty of websites available for buyers and sellers to find each other.

Completing your rent to own deal without a realtor could save the seller a lot of money on commission. That gives the seller some wiggle room on the sale price, which attracts even more buyers.

About Our Listings

It’s in the bank’s best interest to avoid foreclosed homes because they end up having to sell them cheap to recoup lost money. So, they try to play it safe with mortgage approvals by steering clear of people with bad credit.

That doesn’t help someone who’s working on getting their credit together to buy a condo or a townhouse. Nonetheless, rent to buy programs can help people work toward purchasing houses and apartments with no credit check.

The free listings on our site are usually rent to own by owner, so deals are more reasonable and trustworthy than big company lease to purchase properties are. Whenever you’re ready just look for lease-option or lease-purchase homes near me on the Rent to Own Labs website.
