What is Rent to Buy?

Rent to Buy helps tenants in England save for a deposit to buy a home by offering properties at a discount. This is normally 20% below market rent (source: gov.uk).

You can tap here for more information on how Rent to Buy works and to see eligibility criteria on the gov.uk website. 

We usually advertise our Rent to Buy properties on platforms like Rightmove when they're available. Please note that numbers so far have been limited, but we aim to provide more Rent to Buy properties as funding permits.


Please note that Rent to Buy is not the same as Shared Ownership. For more information on our Shared Ownership offer through Stonecross Homes, please tap here.
