This home is available now as a Rent-to-Own, Seller Financing, or Straight Rental.
*All terms are open to negotiation including price, rent, deposit, and purchase structure*
What is Rent-to-Own?
This home offers a rent-to-own option ideal for people who want to become homeowners but may not currently qualify for a traditional mortgage due to credit, income history, or other barriers. With interest rates high and lending tougher than usual, this gives you a way to lock in your future home now, move in right away, and buy later when you're ready.
What is Seller Financing?
Seller financing is a way to buy a home without going through a bank. Instead of applying for a mortgage, you make payments directly to the seller based on a contract you both agree on. This allows you to move in immediately without the delays of bank approvals, inspections, or appraisals. You gain what's called "equitable title," meaning you're treated like the owner while making payments. After a set period (like 2 years), you can either refinance with a traditional lender, pay off the balance, or renegotiate terms with the seller.
Located in the heart of Springville, this 5 bed, 2.5 bath home is just a short walk to the school and the newly renovated children's park. It features a large kitchen, solar panels, a historic layout with character, and a spacious 40' x 24' garage with 220V. Blow-in insulation has been added throughout the walls, making the home extremely well-insulated and energy efficient.
This home was previously used as a duplex and has since been converted into a single-family home. It retains the flexibility to easily be reconverted into a duplex or used as a mother-in-law suite. It also features two central air conditioning units one for the upper level and one for the main floor providing independent climate control and energy efficiency.
The private fenced backyard includes an in-ground trampoline, a fire pit, and a children's playset, making it ideal for families with kids or anyone looking for outdoor fun and relaxation.
While some interior paint and minor cosmetic updates could further improve the space, major upgrades like the roof, siding, and insulation have already been completed.

What's the difference between rent to own and seller financing?
Rent-to-Own means you're renting the home now with the option to buy it later. You can lock in the purchase price and build toward ownership, but until you buy it, you don't have equity or ownership rights major changes to the home usually need approval.
Seller Financing means you're buying the home directly from the seller without a bank. You take equitable ownership right away (also known as "equitable title"), which means you can live in the home and make improvements as if it's yours, even though the full legal title transfers after the final payment or refinance.
