About the tenant-buyers:

Stephanie and Eric are a  married couple with four kids (7, 11, 14 and 15).  They have been renting for the past few years and have watched as rents and house prices climbed in all the areas around them.  They saved for their down payment but need a little time to repair credit, and rather than wait for the perfect time to qualify for their own mortgage, they are looking at rent to own to help them get into homeownership today rather than risk getting priced out of the market by waiting.  They have saved $50,000 towards their down payment and will need 4 years to rebuild credit and become mortgage-ready.

Property

Stephanie and Eric fell in love with a detached property in Peterborough, Ontario. This is a family-friendly community close to downtown and all the amenities that come with that, stores, shops, restaurants and schools.  The house has 3+1 bedrooms and 2-bathrooms.  This house has been completely updated and has a finished basement with in-law potential (2018), new windows (2021), new furnace and AC (2019) and remodelled kitchen (2023).  The family have chosen to move to Peterborough because of its affordability.  They are also excited that  Peterborough has a lot to offer for kids growing up there. It’s also a great city to grow up in and be able to attend college or university while the kids can still live at home.
