Why rent when ownership is an option?

This well-maintained single-family home is available as a rent-to-own opportunity for residents who... want more than a typical rental. If you're working toward homeownership but need time to strengthen credit, save for a down payment, or prepare for a future mortgage, this home offers the stability of renting today with the option to purchase later at a predetermined price.
