How Rent-to-Own Real Estate Works
We explore the concept of rent-to-own real estate in Canada, comparing it to car leasing and explaining how it bridges the gap between renting and owning property. Rent-to-own offers two main agreement types: a lease option agreement where tenants have the choice to buy, and a lease purchase agreement where they're obligated to buy at the end of the term The typical structure includes an upfront option fee (1-5% of home price), monthly rent payments with a portion going toward the future purchase, and a predetermined purchase price This strategy is particularly beneficial for people who can't qualify for traditional mortgages due to insufficient down payment, low credit scores, or non-traditional income sources Sign Up For The Next Webinar Realist Join the best community in Canadian Real Estate realist.ca Attend a Meetups Meetups Nick Instagram.com/mybuddynick tiktok.com/@mybuddynick twitter.com/mybuddynick89 Dan twitter.com/daniel_foch instagram.com/danielfoch tiktok.com/@danielfochSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
