Welcome to a new path for homeownership!
The Laurie Flood Team has a new partner to allow more options for home buyers allowing you to lease almost any home currently for sale for up to three years while locking in a price based on today’s home prices (but not today’s interest rates)….like an insurance policy against an uncertain housing market. Whether you are just moving to Austin and aren’t sure where to live or you’re not quite ready to close on a house, let us walk you through your options.

Home Partners provides responsible households with a clear and transparent path to home ownership through its Lease with a Right to Purchase Program. This program provides three years of rent certainty with only a one-year financial commitment on the lease.
Check out this happy buyer's success story!
If you want to own a home but cannot currently qualify for a mortgage, or if you would prefer to rent a home now with the goal of purchasing it in the next three years, then this program may be for you. Home Partners doesn’t focus exclusively on your credit score. The full credit profile of your entire household is taken into account when they review your application to the Home Partners program.
Ready to Make the Jump?
Your Right to Purchase Agreement gives you the right to purchase the home you selected from Home Partners at a predetermined price for every year of your lease, as long as you have been in compliance with the lease, agreement and other documents. You are under no obligation to buy the home from Home Partners.
Advantages, Key Considerations, and the Lease Agreement
| Not a Traditional Lease: | ||
|---|---|---|
| Advantages | As with a standard lease agreement, Home Partners requires you to sign a lease for a year and make a security deposit. Unlike a standard lease agreement, you will have renewal options providing three years of rent certainty and the right to purchase the home at a price established when you enter the Right to Purchase Agreement, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. You can also select the home that you want to live in from all the available homes shown on the Home Partners website. | |
| Key Considerations | Home Partners buys homes in specific approved communities, so you can go to their website to see what communities are currently in their program. We will guide you in finding the right home in the right community in the Home Partners’ program. Once you approve the purchase price in your Right to Purchase Agreement, that is the price at which you may purchase the home during the term of the lease, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, whether the home is later appraised at a higher or lower value. If you do not purchase the home as provided in the Agreement, Home Partners may rent or sell the home to others when your lease ends. | |
| Lease Agreement | Your initial lease is for one year, so your financial commitment is limited to one year. Your lease is renewable every year for three one-year periods, and you have the right to notify Home Partners if you don’t want to renew the lease. Your full security deposit will be returned as provided in the lease if you decide to leave the home at the end of a lease period and have been in full compliance with the lease. | |
