About the tenant-buyers:
Patrick and Tina are a hardworking couple determined to provide stability for their three children (ages 14, 9, and under 5). They are ready to break free from the cycle of renting and build equity in a home of their own. They have saved $20,000 for a down payment and are eager to put it toward homeownership.
Despite their strong financial responsibility, they cannot qualify for a traditional mortgage today and need time to re-establish credit.

Income
Patrick and Tina have a combined annual income of $109,704, coming from multiple stable sources, ensuring financial security and the ability to comfortably manage Rent-to-Own payments.

Credit
Patrick and Tina have been financially responsible but were misled by a mortgage professional who advised Tina to enter a consumer proposal, which was unnecessary at the time. They are now focused on paying it off early and using the next two years to re-establish Tina’s credit, ensuring they are well-positioned to qualify for a mortgage at the end of their Rent-to-Own term.
- Patrick has a strong credit score of 712 with minimal debt.
- Tina’s credit score is currently 534, but it will increase significantly once her consumer proposal is fully repaid.
