Rent to own Homes in Garden City, MI

Garden City is a part of Michigan's famous Wayne County. The land was a gift from Andrew Jackson to John Lathers, who dreamed of replicating city styles that were popular in England at the time. The original layout of the city allowed early residents to use the land between homes for large gardens which provided enough food to sustain themselves. Since Garden City was developed, it has had the distinction of being the site of the first McDonald's drive-through, the birthplace of Little Caesars, and the site of the very first Kmart.

Garden City, MI is a great place for affordable rent-to-own homes! With a median household income of over $57,011 and a median rent of $967, the Garden City, MI 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 Garden City, MI. 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.
