Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Lease-to-Purchase Program

A lease-to-purchase program lets you rent your home while building toward ownership. You pay a small option fee upfront and a modest monthly premium, and at the end of 12 months you have the right — but not the obligation — to purchase the home at today's locked-in price.
