Rent to own Homes in Oak Creek, WI

Oak Creek, Wisconsin is a small town bordering Milwaukee. It offers the best of Wisconsin living--friendly neighbors, winter sports and plenty of outdoor activities--as well as easy access to two major metropolitan cities, making it an ideal choice for many Midwesterners. Oak Creek was originally formed in the 1800s to prevent Milwaukee from annexing it; it remains proud of its independence to this day (which is probably why it has one of the biggest 4th of July bashes in the Midwest.)

Oak Creek, WI is a great place for affordable rent-to-own homes! With a median household income of over $75,657 and a median rent of $1,115, the Oak Creek, WI 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 Oak Creek, WI. 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.
