Effective Lease Options with RE Investor Hive


What are Lease Options?

Real estate lease options (also known as lease-option agreements) are contracts that allow a tenant to lease a property with the option to purchase it later, usually within a specified period and at a predetermined price.


Key Features of Lease Options:

  1. Lease Agreement
    • The tenant pays monthly rent and lives in or uses the property like a standard lease
  2. Option to Purchase
    • The tenant has the right (but not the obligation) to buy the property during or at the end of the lease term
  3. Option Fee
    • The tenant typically pays an upfront, non-refundable fee (often 1–5% of the purchase price) to secure the purchase option
  4. Purchase Price
    • Either locked in at the start of the lease or determined at a later date (depending on the agreement)
  5. Rent Credits (optional)
    • A portion of monthly rent may be credited toward the purchase price if the tenant exercises the option
