A lease purchase agreement in real estate is a rent-to-own contract between a tenant and a landlord for the former to purchase the property at a later point in time. The renter pays the seller an option fee at an agreed-upon purchase price, giving them exclusive rights to buy the property.
In a standard Lease-Purchase Contract, the two parties agree to a lease period during which rent is paid, and the terms of the sale at the end of the lease period, including sale price. Often, the contract is structured in two parts, one representing the lease term and the other a contract of sale.
Officially record the lease agreement and purchase option. The easiest way to do this is have the paperwork notarized and then recorded in your local public real estate records. Escrow the deed. Record a mortgage.
Details to include: Tenant/Buyer: The name and address of the party who is leasing the property and obtaining the option to purchase. Property: The address and legal description of the property. Rent Payments: The amount of the monthly rent payments and any late fees.
