How Rent to Buy Works

Rent to Buy (Rent to Own) people to acquire UK property over a fixed period of time, at the beginning of the agreement there is no need to secure a mortgage or put down a full deposit. It is also possible for people in financial difficulties to rebuild their credit profile while buying a new property.

You will become a Tenant Buyer, paying rent of which part goes towards your eventual deposit once you purchase the property at the agreed time & price in the future. This means that when you pay your rent you are investing in your future prosperity rather than paying ‘dead rent' that gives you nothing at the end.

Rent to Buy (Rent to Own) has been introduced to the UK Housing market recently but it has been operating very successfully in America & Australia for decades.

Rent to Buy means you own an option to buy the property at a fixed price at a fixed date in the future, this option to buy gives you the right but not the obligation to buy, so if it does not suit you at the end of the option term you can walk away or re-negotiate a new deal.
