What is a Lease Option contract?

A rent to own contract (also referred to as rent-2-own, lease to purchase, lease purchase, lease with option to buy) is an arrangement that combines a basic lease contract with an option (not the obligation) to purchase a property. This arrangement typically allows you to purchase the property, if you desire, after a specified time period (typically 12 to 24 months) at a pre-arranged price. In some rent to own contracts, a rent credit is offered which is when a portion of your rent is applied toward the actual purchase of the property if the purchase option is exercised. Many mortgage professionals can use these rent credits as part of the down payment if the renter can show a consistent history (of at least 12 months) of making on-time rental payments.

What are the benefits of utilizing the RMEHomes.com Lease Option program?

If you are self employed, need time to clear up credit blemishes, or do not want the hassle of dealing with banks this may be ideal for you.

As a potential buyer/tenant, there are many positive features and benefits of utilizing a Lease Option program, including:

• No banks to deal with: no more bank hassles!
• Improve your Credit: You are creating a strong credit reference while you are renting to own!
• Improving Your Property: Because you will own this property, any improvements you do that increase the value of the property help you build more equity for yourself.
• Your Earnest Money deposit is credited towards the purchase of your home: This money is your vested interest in the home and will be fully credited (100%) to either your down payment or off the sales price.
• Your sales price is locked in: The sales price will be stated in the lease purchase agreement and agreed to ahead of time.
• You profit from appreciation: Since the sales price is locked in before closing, any increase in property value will mean that your equity is increasing in the home.
• You pay no property taxes: Since you do not own the home yet, you will not have to pay property taxes.
• Time is on your side: Before you actually buy the home, you will have a lot of time to improve your credit, be on your job longer, save more down payment money or find the best financing available.

You are making a smart financial decision.
