Rent to own Homes in Safety Harbor, FL

Located on the west coast of Florida and bordered by Tampa Bay, Safety Harbor is a cozy community nestled between the metropolitan city of Tampa, to the north, and the sun-drenched beaches of Clearwater, to the south. The city was incorporated in 1917 and although it features numerous businesses, attractions, modern architecture and technology, it retains the friendly and historic charm and appeal of a small town.

Safety Harbor, FL is a great place for affordable rent-to-own homes! With a median household income of over $83,116 and a median rent of $1,313, the Safety Harbor, FL 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 Safety Harbor, FL. 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.
