St. Petersburg, FL is a great place for affordable rent-to-own homes! With the current housing shortage trend it can make it harder to become a homeowner, including in St. Petersburg, 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.

Downtown at Beach Drive is the newest waterfront shopping experience that has a little bit of everything: apparel shops, seafood, dining, arts and crafts, and entertainment. If you have a sweet tooth, Schakolad Chocolate Factory and Sweet Divas chocolates compete for your attention on the same block. But it probably doesn't get any better than Baywater. Opened in 2000, Baywater is the topmost shopping, dining, and entertainment experience you may have downtown. Owned by entrepreneur Fred Bullard, it features 130,000 square feet of retail space plus an 80,000 square foot movie theater.
