Rent to own Homes in Manhattan Beach, CA

A coastal town just southwest of Los Angeles, Manhattan Beach is known mostly for beach volleyball and surfing. In fact, each sport holds its own festival locally each year. While home prices might be a little higher than average here, residents say the plethora of green ways and walking trails, the stretches of sandy beach, and the enviable Southern California weather with pleasant summers and even more temperate winters more than makes up for it.

Manhattan Beach, CA is a great place for affordable rent-to-own homes! With a median household income of over $153,926 and a median rent of $2,582, the Manhattan Beach, CA rent-to-own market is more affordable than the traditional housing market which has shown tremendous growth across the U.S. and with it, aggressive competition for home purchases. With the current housing shortage trend it can make it harder to become a homeowner, including in Manhattan Beach, CA. This means higher than average down payments for homes and higher qualification standards for conventional home loans. With a rent-to-own property, tenants are also buyers. You can live in the house for a set amount of time before you purchase it, meaning that you get to know the house, your neighbors, and your community before making the final purchase. This enables you and your family to make the right choice based on both information and experience. Rent-to-own is also a great alternative way to get into a home if you have bad credit or don't have enough saved for a down payment.
