David breaks down the key benefits of rent-to-own, how it helps those struggling to qualify for a mortgage, and the steps involved in transitioning from renter to homeowner.
For investors, David shares his insights on mitigating risks, structuring win-win deals, and lessons learned from growing his program. We also discuss the future of Rent to Grow Homes and how rent-to-own can shape the housing market.
