The Dwellr options paves a new path for people to become homeowners. Successful applicants sign up to a Lease Agreement of 36 months on their selected property. The lessee is not a traditional tenant but a prospective buyer.
The Lease to Own agreement outlines the lease period, the amount and purpose of the down payment, and the terms for the future purchase.
The Lease to Own Agreement explicitly differentiates between the monthly lease payments made for the right to occupy the property and additional payments that constitute the down payment towards future ownership. With Dwellr's application rules successful applicants are assured of being mortgage ready at the end of the Lease-to-Own term (max 36 months). Monthly payments are made to Dwellr with a portion of the monthly lease payment being deposited in an escrow account for the lessee. This escrow account is a deposit savings mechanism for the lease to save for the 10% down payment required to secure a mortgage. At the end of 36 months the lessee can then apply for a mortgage.
Building Insurance is the responsibility of Dwellr during the Lease-to-Own term. The chosen property remains the property of Dwellr's regulated funding partner until either the mortgage is drawn down or the lessee decides not to proceed and purchase the property.
If the lessee decides not to buy the property at the end of the Lease-to-Own term they can withdraw their savings (less fees applying, if any).
You are required to answer all questions posed by Dwellr honestly and with reasonable care – the test will be that of the ‘average consumer’.

Specific questions will be asked. Where you do not provide additional information (after being requested to do) it can be presumed that the information previously provided remains unchanged. Non-disclosure of material information can result in an application, and any and all future applications) being rejected.
A copy of the Completed Application Form will be provided to you. This is an important document as it forms the basis of the contract between Dwellr and you, the consumer. You should review and confirm that the answers contained within are true and accurate.
