Get One Step Closer to Owning Your Home

Most people spend months chasing houses that aren't a fit.

This form helps us make sure that doesn't happen to you.

In just a few minutes, you'll tell us about your goals, finances, and timeline so we can determine whether one of our Lease Option or Private Finance opportunities could be a good match.

This is NOT an application.

There is no cost, no obligation, and we're not asking for sensitive or confidential information.

We're simply gathering enough information to understand your situation and determine whether it makes sense to move forward.

Why Complete This Form?

Because good opportunities are limited.

Lease Option homes are scarce, and when a property becomes available, we prioritize people who have already completed this form and demonstrated they are serious about becoming homeowners.

The more complete and accurate your answers, the faster we can:

✅ Identify opportunities that fit your situation

✅ Save you time looking at homes that won't work

✅ Help you avoid unnecessary frustration and disappointment

Important

Completing this form does not guarantee approval.

If we find a potential match and you decide you'd like to move forward, you'll still need to complete a formal application and approval process.

One Request

Please answer every question.

If a question doesn't apply to you, simply enter "N/A."

You've already taken the hardest step—deciding you want a different path to homeownership.

Now let's see if we're a fit.


We receive far more inquiries than available homes. Completing this form ensures you're considered when opportunities become available.


First and Last Name
What is your best email address?  (When we have properties available that meet your criteria, we notify our VIP buyers first.)
What's your best phone number?  If we have a house available that looks like a good fit for you, we would like to be able to reach you right away.
Will there be a co-applicant?  Enter First and Last Name (or NA if not applicable or unsure).
How many adults, and how many children (including yourself).
Please include the combined income of all adults who will be living in the home.

Enter either:

Gross Income (before taxes and deductions), or
Net Income (the amount you actually take home after taxes and deductions)

If you know your annual income, simply divide it by 12 to estimate your monthly amount.

You may include any income sources you want us to consider, such as employment, self-employment, retirement income, disability income, alimony, child support, or other regular income.

Please note: Household income is one of the factors used to determine eligibility. If insufficient income is disclosed, you may not qualify for certain homes or programs.

What is your total household monthly income?
The Option Fee gives you the exclusive right to purchase the home at a predetermined price during your lease term.

Even better, 100% of your Option Fee is credited toward your purchase when you buy the home. Think of it as a down payment you make now instead of later.

Most tenant-buyers invest 3%–5% of the purchase price, although some choose to invest more to strengthen their position or secure better terms.

Our minimum starting point is typically $5,000. We require this because successful homeownership requires commitment, and we prioritize working with people who are serious about becoming homeowners.

The Option Fee is usually paid at the beginning of the lease term. However, if you have limited savings today and can afford a somewhat higher monthly payment, we may be able to structure a portion of the Option Fee over time.

Which of the following ranges best describes the amount you could invest up front toward your future home?
(Savings, 401K, gift, borrowed, etc.  You may also include proposed payment plan if you need to spread the Option Consideration Fee payments over time.  We ask this now, because your future lender will likely ask for similar disclosures.)
What is the maximum amount you can afford for your monthly housing expense/rent?  (Right now, we're only talking about the rent - or mortgage payment if private financed.  This does not include items like utilities, etc. - )
We have helped many people with challenged credit, and that won't necessarily stop you from being qualified for a lease purchase, but we need to know about it so we can help you  - or show you how to fix it.

Right now, we're not asking for your personal and confidential information here.
This question is simply on the honor system. If you know your score, great! If you don't, do you have any late pays, collections, public records?

NOTE: If you eventually proceed to a formal application on a home, we will request to pull your credit at that time.
What is your timeframe for finding a home and moving?
Please list any pets that would be living in the home, including:

-Species (dog, cat, bird, etc.)
-Breed
-Approximate weight
-Number of pets

Lease Purchase Homes: Pets are often accepted on a case-by-case basis. Additional pet fees or deposits may apply.

Private Financing: Pets are generally not an issue because you will be purchasing the home.

If you do not have any pets, enter "NONE."
If there is a particular property that you are interested in, please enter the address.
This helps us know where to look for properties.  Towns, zip codes, regions
Are there any "must have's" (or "must NOT have") for your future home?
Daytime?  Evening?  Weekdays?  Weekends?
Let us know if you have comments or questions, or want to share some additional information about your situation.
