Lease it back to the Builder!

Right now, we know of two opportunities to purchase the model home in very desirable communities in Lewes, Delaware. The builder is in the business of building homes, not owning them. When they sell the model they pay rent to continue to use it as a model for a period of time, generally one or two years. What are the benefits to you?

  • Buy a home loaded with all the options at today’s “buyer market” price
  • Take advantage of unbelievably low mortgage interest rates and lock in a fixed rate loan before rates rise
  • Wait to list your home for sale until you’re ready to retire or prices recover in your market
