Rent to own Homes in Atascadero, CA

First envisioned as a model community in 1913 by magazine publisher Edward Gardner Lewis, Atascadero is now a thriving city with a population of 30,000. Though few of the original buildings remain as a testament to Lewis's utopian Atascadero Colony, the city's location halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles gives residents easy access to two of the most famous cities in the world.

Atascadero, CA is a great place for affordable rent-to-own homes! With a median household income of over $79,620 and a median rent of $1,439, the Atascadero, 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 Atascadero, 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.
