If you need to sell your home and you need to sell it fast, you may want to consider selling with rent to own. There are many people who want to own a home but do not currently qualify for a mortgage. If you’re having a hard time selling, you can take advantage of this wonderful group of move-in-ready people. It’s as quick and easy as ABC. (Advertising, Barter, Contract) You sell your own home and the renter buyer becomes a happy home owner fast. Best of all, you can get on with your life!

A. Advertise to sell your house fast. Place an ad on a free website such as Craigslist, in a daily or weekly newspaper, or on local bulletin boards. Describe your home, the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, additional features, why you bought it, the general location, and any special features. Advertising Tip: Start with Rent to Own, a sure attention grabber. Also, add a photo, it is worth a thousand words. Please include your contact information, phone number or email address.

B. Barter. You need to sell your house fast. So please be flexible with the renter/prospective owner. The tenant buyer is looking at his house to see if it meets his needs and if he would like to invest in it. You’re researching the tenant to see if you want to sell your house to them on super quick, easy, and nice terms. If you are confident that the lessee will be able to fulfill his part of the contract, start the barter process. To sell your house fast, you need your house payment to be made every month, and you may want a little more for any unforeseen events that arise. A deposit is normal to show good intentions and to cover damages if the deal doesn’t work out. This can be anywhere from several hundred dollars to several thousand. The tenant may need some time to pay the deposit in full, if it is a large amount. Be flexible, selling your house fast is the goal.

C. Contract. Once you sell your home, you need to document the agreement. You may want to pay a lawyer to write the contract or do it yourself. Many office supply stores have forms that cover the basics and fill-in-the-blanks. Many forms are available online. Fill in the blanks and sign and date the agreement. Collect the money. Congratulations. You sold your house fast with rent to own!
