DEFINITION
Rent to Buy – A Flexible Finance Option for Acquiring Goods
Rent to Buy, also known as a “rent-to-own” or “lease-to-own” arrangement, is a financial method that enables individuals to acquire goods with a flexible payment structure. This approach begins with an initial deposit and subsequent lease payments. Unlike traditional rental agreements, Rent to Buy offers the purchaser the option to eventually buy the good or continue leasing it.
During a Rent to Buy agreement, the purchaser essentially leases the item, making regular payments. At the end of the term, they have the choice to make a final payment to own the item outright. This flexibility can be advantageous for those who may wish to try the product before committing to a purchase or who want to spread the cost over time.
