With home buyers finding it increasingly difficult to secure a home loan to fit their needs, the Rent2buy concept is proving an even more popular way to secure your own home to purchase.

Lending institutions are granting less 100 % home loans and deposits of between 10 – 15 % are required.

How does Rent2buy work?  

The seller grants the purchaser an option to buy the property at a predetermined price. This option can be exercised 6 – 24 months later. The terms and conditions of the sale agreement are added to the agreement with a lease for the property. Usually a higher rent2buy rental amount is payable and it can be negotiated that the extra rental paid is allocated towards a savings towards a deposit for when the property is later purchased.

How to you find a rent2buy property?  

Finding a Rent2buy property is one of the most difficult “things” to get, says Meyer de Waal a Cape Town attorney who fine-tuned the Rent2buy concept over the past 10 years.

The development of some 10 000 houses to be developed over the next few years by a leading property group may open release more Rent2buy units to aspiring home owners.

Luckily, some property developers realized that a rent2buy buyer today, can be a “ready-to-buy-buyer”, some 6- 18 months later, says De Waal.

We recently met with one of the largest property developers in South Africa and they plan to construct some 10 000 new homes in the next few years. This group is interested to provide a few Rent2buy units to us. The units will be constructed over a period of time and this it will be an ideal opportunity for a home buyer who is almost ready to buy a home, but not yet 100 % there, to get his or her foot in the Rent2buy door.

One of the challenges is to find a rent2buy property in your area, that matches your requirements, your price range & your affordability & your rent2buy time line.

Such a Rent2buy property is thus not easy to come by. We decided to enable aspiring home buyers to get started early, so by the time that the rent2buy units become available, they will be ready to proverbially “know on the door” to secure their own home says De Waal.
