Find a home now. Prepare to buy it later.
If traditional mortgage financing is not available today, a lease with an option to purchase may provide another path. Tell us where you want to live, your timing, and what you can reasonably contribute upfront.
Who this may help.
- Self-employed buyers
- Buyers rebuilding credit
- Buyers who need additional documentation time
- Buyers planning to purchase within the next few years
- Families who know where they want to live but cannot finance a purchase today
Can I participate if I cannot qualify for a mortgage today?
Possibly. Real.Rent is intended for people who may need additional time before conventional financing becomes available. Participation does not guarantee that a buyer will qualify for a mortgage later.
What we'll ask you.
Where you want to live
The city, area, or ZIP codes you're considering.
The home you're looking for
Property type, size, and any must-haves worth knowing.
Purchase readiness
Your general timing and what you can reasonably contribute upfront.
How to reach you
Your name and contact information so a representative can follow up.
About two minutes. Not a credit application.
Submitting this information does not guarantee a match, approval, financing, lease, or future purchase.
Questions buyers ask most.
Possibly. Real.Rent is intended for people who may need additional time before conventional financing becomes available. Participation does not guarantee that a buyer will qualify for a mortgage later.
The amount depends on the home, the owner, the proposed agreement, and applicable law. There is no single required figure. Buyers should enter the amount they reasonably have available, and any specific terms are set later in a written agreement reviewed by licensed professionals.
The initial inquiry is not a credit application and does not involve a credit inquiry. If a credit or background review becomes necessary later in the process, you will be asked for proper authorization first and told who will perform it before anything proceeds.
Real.Rent does not set a minimum credit score, and the initial inquiry is not a credit application. Many people who reach out are rebuilding credit or need time before conventional financing becomes possible. Whether a particular arrangement can work depends on the homeowner, the property, the proposed terms, and applicable law.
