RENT TO OWN 2 Bedroom House Mt. Carmel TN $1,060 monthly
438 Bay Street Mt. Carmel, Tn 37645
$120,000 total
$10,000 down payment
$110,000 remaining
$900 monthly payment
A HIGHER DOWN PAYMENT WILL RESULT IN A LOWER MONTHLY PAYMENT (and I generally also reduce the total price)
Frequently Asked Questions:
1. How do I apply & do I qualify?
All you have to do is start the conversation to apply. There is no application. Text, call, or pm me anytime.
2. What if I have bad credit?
You show you are serious about being a home owner by providing the downpayment. I do not do credit or background checks; that's your business. However, you can use proof of making monthly payments to me to improve your credit score.
3. Am I (Jameson) the owner of the home or is there a bank involved ?
Yes I own the property 100% that I am offering; there is not a bank involved.
I have paid for all the homes I sell rent to own in full, & I have no loans of any type on any of the homes. Reliable Title in Johnson City can confirm that I have TITLE INSURANCE on all homes.
4. Can the payment be decreased? What if I want to make a larger down payment ?
- A larger downpayment will lower the monthly payment. (Also, depending on the circumstances, I have lowered the total price of the home, which also decreases the payment, to incentivizing you providing a larger down payment.)
There will never be another balloon payment required: the loan can run the full term, & there is not a penalty to pay off early. You can pay me off the principal at anytime & any amount you pay above the payment is added together and deducted from the remaining principal if you would like to pay the home off early.
5. What if I want to make changes to the home ?
The homes I offer for Rent to Own are sold "as is", because you own the home and can make it exactly as you prefer. I just need to be notified of anything major to make sure there isn't anything load-bearing or structural changed or a modification that might devalue the property. You can feel free to make the changes to the home that you like and make your dream home your style.
6. Do we have a closing?
The credit union I am a member of will notarize contracts for free. I normally meet at the credit union to sign and notarize the contract when I accept the downpayment. You will leave with a notarized & embossed contract signed by you and myself. Or, we can have a notarized closing at Passport Title in Kingsport for a small fee. (Also, I've sold many homes via Docusign.)
7. How do I view the home?
There is a coded lock on the door. Give me a call or send me a message and I will tell you how to access the property.
A HIGHER DOWN PAYMENT WILL RESULT IN A LOWER MONTHLY PAYMENT (and I generally also reduce the total price)
I have other rent to own properties available in the Tri-cities. Call me or send me a message for more information anytime.
This home is RENT TO OWN only, it is NOT for rent. You can make this your forever home with a $10,000 down payment and monthly payments. No section 8.
