Rent to Own – Wales is a Welsh Government scheme to support buying a home for those who do not have sufficient funds for a mortgage deposit.
Rent to Own – Wales supports the purchase of a home for those who do not have sufficient funds for a mortgage deposit. The scheme enables tenants of rental properties within the scheme, to build up a lump sum toward a deposit whilst they rent their home. The lump sum toward the deposit can then be used to help secure a mortgage to enable the purchase of the home.
How it works
With Rent to Own – Wales:
- you will have the opportunity to purchase the home you are renting and can build up a lump sum towards a mortgage deposit whilst renting the home
- you will initially rent the home and can receive 25% of the rent paid over the duration of the tenancy and 50% of the increase in the property value (if any) during the period of time you have rented the property to use as a deposit towards purchasing the property.
- your Rent to Own – Wales agreement lasts up to 5 years, you can apply to buy your home at anytime between the end of the 2nd year and the end of the agreement.
