Having Trouble SELLING your property?
We may be able to help with an alternative to the conventional way of selling a property. You can AVOID REPOSSESSION or be given an opportunity to be FREE to move on.
What is a Lease Option?
An option is a contract between yourself (seller) and a buyer which gives the buyer the use of the property from the date of signing the agreement, and the right to buy it in the future.
During the option period the option holder takes on responsibility for the property and pays a monthly fee to YOU.
Under the terms of the contract, You must sell the property to the buyer if, and when he wishes to buy it. Whilst the buyer will not be legally obliged to buy the property, it is the buyer’s intention to go ahead with the purchase.
