Rent-to-Own

Rent-to-own is becoming popular once again

Rent-to-own options are gaining favor again after falling out of favor during the last few decades when mortgages were easy to get.

The advantage of rent-to-own to a buyer includes a way around poor credit and an opportunity to rebuild credit worthiness and get in a home and position oneself a to obtain a mortgage.

For sellers, it offers cash flow from a property that might otherwise just be sitting there.

In some parts of the country, like Florida, rent-to-own arrangements are fairly commonplace; but in other parts of the country, buyers and sellers are only beginning to experiment with this form of purchase.

For developers it can be very beneficial as a tool to market their idle spec homes and produce cash flow to keep their lenders happy.
