Why Choose Seller Finance/Lease Option

Why Seller Finance, Lease Option or Rent to Own?

Buyers: 

Many buyers have sufficient employment income, down payment etc. However due to any one of the many "Life Events" that we all go through you may not fit into the traditional finance box.

A buyer may be self employed, had a recent divorce, injury , medical bankruptcy or may have just moved to the area for a new job.

Owner Financing generally allows a buyer to purchase a home, even when they do not currently qualify for a traditional mortgage. It does not matter if you are self employed, or have damaged credit.

Some benefits include: 

• Fast Transaction! These transactions generally 3 weeks or less to complete.
• Superior to renting because the home is being sold, not rented.
• Your purchase price is locked in and you begin building equity right away.
• Great for purchasing in an up market because when the market rises, so will your equity in the home. Sellers are more flexible with their terms     

Sellers:

Many sellers may not have enough equity to cover the cost to sell their home traditionally and need to carry the property for 3 to 5 years.

Sellers may be facing a job transfer, divorce or other reasons that require selling now and renting is not a viable option.

Seller may own the property free & clear and want to be the bank for a buyer.

Here are a few common benefits of seller financing:

• Allows a home owner to sell a difficult to sell home – often quickly and at a higher price!
• Fast Transaction! These transactions generally take 3 weeks or less to complete.
• Avoids a foreclosure and short sale in cases where the home owner can no longer afford a home
• Usually does not require seller to bring cash to closing – even in cases where the home has little or no equity.
• Superior to renting because home is being sold, not rented. Seller does not have to worry about maintaining the home going forward. The Seller does not need to “Landlord” the property.

Benefits for both parties:

Low loan costs. No origination fee, no underwriting fee, no JUNK fees.

• Close when you both agree.  It is amazing what can be done when greedy banks are eliminated.
• Re-establish good credit the best way possible- By making monthly payments on your home.
• Buyers can become established in a home and neighborhood NOW before home prices increase more.

Frequently Asked Questions

Rent To Own Frequently Asked Questions video  

 

The process of Rent to Own in Utah is the same as buying a house with traditional financing. You first have to establish a “credit package” and determine any issues keeping you from getting traditional financing. 
If your credit is not ready for underwriting then you simply enter the 24 Month Success Program where you will have time to resolve any remaining issues keeping you from getting financing. Either way you must start an application to get into a home.

What are the minimum Down Payment requirements to buy a Rent to Own Utah Home?

We do not set “minimum” down payment requirements to buy a Rent to Own Utah home, the lenders do! If your goal is to actually OWN your home you will need to have the minimum down payment to qualify for traditional financing. Here are some examples of down payment requirements:

FHA – 3.5% of the Home’s Purchase Price ($10,500 on a $300,000 home)
Conventional – 10% of the Home’s Purchase Price ($40,000 on a $400,000 home) 

Owner Financing – 20% or more of the Home’s Purchase Price ($100,000 on a $500,000 home) and can be more depending on the situation

Putting more money down ultimately increases YOUR financing options. 

How Long is the Rent to Own or Lease Option Agreement?

Your Credit Package will determine how long the Rent to Own or Lease Option Agreement will extend. The better your credit the shorter the term.

Why do you want a shorter term? Because of the HUGE tax benefits that come when you can get traditional financing and own your own home!

To find out exactly how long your term will need to be Apply Today!

I have bad credit – Can I still qualify to buy a Rent to Own Utah Home?

Even if you have bad credit you can still qualify to buy a Rent to Own Utah Home! The status of your credit will determine the term (length) of the lease option period.

Does the monthly payment go toward the purchase price when buying a Rent to Own Utah Home?

Sometimes a portion of the monthly may go to the purchase price when buying a Rent to Own Utah Home. Every home and the available terms are different. However, as a good rule of thumb, any amounts you pay in excess of the lease rate on a monthly basis will go toward the purchase price of the home.

Does the monthly payment go to the homeowner when I Rent to Own in Utah?

Your monthly payment does NOT go the homeowner when you Rent to Own in Utah. Rent to Own Utah Homes ALWAYS structures the monthly payment to be safely and securely handled by a third party escrow company. This protects both parties from a bad rent to own or lease option scenario.

How do I qualify to buy a Rent to Own Utah Home?

Qualifying to buy a Rent to Own Utah Home is easy. You start by completing a basic mortgage application.

From there we will start your credit package to determine the requirements needed for you to successfully buy your home. After you’ve signed a Buyer Broker agreement to have us represent you, you may start shopping for your new Rent to Own Utah Home from all of the properties in the available inventory.
