Introducing Rent to Buy from L&Q
Rent to Buy (RtB) is a government scheme designed to transition you from a renter into a homeowner. The rents are often priced at 80% of a similar property on the open market. The savings you make on the discounted rent can then be used towards a deposit for your first home.
Rent to Buy lets you:
- Rent a home at a lower price compared to renting privately
- Save faster towards a deposit to buy your own home
- Rent the homes you want to buy
- Buy a share of your home through Shared Ownership, or on the open market with L&Q within 5 years**
