  • Property Address: 789 Elm Street, Anytown, USA

  • Description: A single-family residence with three bedrooms and two bathrooms

  • Legal Description: Lot 123, Block A, Anytown Subdivision, according to the recorded plat thereof

2. Lease Term

2.1 The lease agreement shall commence on the 1st day of February in the year 2050, marking the official start of the tenancy. This agreement will continue for thirty-six months. As per the terms outlined, the lease term will conclude on the 31st day of January in the year 2053, signifying the termination date of the agreement. These specified dates establish the timeline for the commencement and conclusion of the lease term, providing clarity and structure to the landlord-tenant arrangement.

3. Purchase Option

3.1 During the period of the lease term, the individual in the position of the Tenant will be granted the choice to purchase the property. This option can be exercised at any point in time as long as the duration of the lease remains in effect. However, to officially opt for this purchase, the Tenant is required to deliver a formal notice in written format to the party functioning as the Landlord.

3.2 The agreed-upon price for the property being purchased is set at $250,000. This price is final and non-negotiable, remaining constant throughout the lease term. The fixed nature of this price ensures that it will not be subject to any changes or adjustments during the duration of the lease agreement. This provision provides certainty and stability regarding the financial aspect of the transaction, outlining a clear understanding between the parties involved.

4. Rent Payments

4.1 The individual who is referred to as 'the Tenant' has a responsibility to transfer rent payment to the person or entity known as 'the Landlord'. The mentioned payment is set at a rate of fifteen hundred dollars for every month. The specified payment should be made on the fifteenth day of each one of those months.

5. Rent Credits

5.1 A portion of the monthly rent paid by the Tenant will be credited towards the purchase price of the property. Specifically, the rent credit amount is set at $200 per month. This provision outlines a direct benefit for the Tenant, as a portion of their monthly rent payments contributes towards eventual ownership of the property. By incorporating this rent credit mechanism, the agreement provides an incentive for the Tenant while facilitating their path toward potential ownership of the property.

5.2 Should the Tenant decide to exercise the option to purchase the property, the accumulation of rent credits over time will result in a corresponding reduction in the property's purchase price. This provision underscores the tangible benefit for the Tenant, as their consistent rent payments contribute towards lowering the overall cost of purchasing the property. By acknowledging the impact of rent credits on the purchase price, the agreement incentivizes the Tenant's potential transition from tenant to property owner.

6. Maintenance and Repairs

This obligation includes all necessary maintenance and repair work required to keep the property in optimal condition.

7. Closing Procedures

7.1 If the Tenant opts to exercise the purchase option, the parties involved will proceed with the sale's closing procedure, following standard real estate practices customary to such transactions. This clause ensures that the purchase process adheres to established industry norms and practices, providing clarity and familiarity for all parties involved. By referencing standard real estate practices, the agreement facilitates a smooth and efficient transition from tenant to property owner, streamlining the purchase process.
