Property owners considering alternatives
Explore a lease option for the property you own.
If a straightforward sale does not fit your goals, describe whether leasing with an option to purchase is worth discussing. Begin with ownership, occupancy, existing obligations and what you want to achieve.
The original LifeTree video
See how selling your house can work.
Watch the movie from our original website, then explore your options. Tell us about the property, its condition, and the timing you need.
Ask how the current process and written offer apply to your situation. Any older figures or timing in the recording should be confirmed for your transaction.
An owner conversation begins with your goals
Explain why you are considering a lease option, when you need income or possession to change, whether tenants are already in place and whether an existing mortgage or other obligation affects the property.
Put responsibilities and deadlines into clear terms
A proposed arrangement needs careful review of rent, option consideration, purchase price or pricing method, option period, maintenance, insurance, taxes, access, default provisions and any permitted subleasing or assignment. These details depend on the actual agreement.
Compare a lease option with selling or keeping the rental
Consider management responsibilities, carrying costs, uncertainty and your longer-term plans. LifeTree can review whether a potential property-specific option is worth discussing; a submission does not create a lease or sale.
Questions before your next step
Is this the form for someone looking for a rent-to-own home?
This is the owner path. Prospective residents should use the Rent to Own page.
Do you automatically accept a property for a lease option?
No. Ownership, financing, condition, occupancy, local requirements and proposed terms all require review.
Start privately
Tell us about the property and your goals.
Start with your contact details. Additional questions help LifeTree understand the inquiry; you can leave optional details for the conversation.
