2. Times are Tough With strict approval guidelines and lenders tightening their belts, it's becoming increasingly more difficult to get clients approved. Gone are the days when only the irresponsible were unable to obtain financing. These days, those with high income, those new to Canada, and even entrepreneurs feel the wrath of the stringent financing qualifications. 2 ©Home Owner Soon, 2006-2009

5. Who is Home Owner Soon? Home Owner Soon is a Toronto-based company that offers rent to own solutions for both renters who are passionate about becoming home owners, and the brokers who fight to fulfill their dream. In 2006, Realtor Alex Kluge (top right), MBA and Broker Guy Lew (bottom left), AMP identified a hole in the industry – a hole that was only getting larger as time went on. The market was saturated with smaller, local lease players, but there was no company with the kind of reputation and clout needed to fill the ever-increasing demand for a national rent to own option. 4 ©Home Owner Soon, 2006-2009

14. Sounds great but how does it all work? 10 ©Home Owner Soon, 2006-2009

15. Rent to own explained Rent to own is also commonly referred to as Lease to own. The terms are interchangeable. Rent to own is a lease agreement between the owner of the property (the lessorwho is a Home Owner Soon investor) and the tenant owner (the lessee) . Leases are agreed upon by both parties and the lease payments are paid monthly over the lease term-generally 2 years. 11 ©Home Owner Soon, 2006-2009

16. What are option credits and security deposits? Option Credits… A set portion of the lease (20%) is credited towards the down payment and later used to purchase the home at the end of the lease term. This is accomplished through the monthly option credits. Security Deposit… The tenant-owner is required to bring in a minimum security deposit of 5% which is held by the lessor with no obligation to pay interest. 12 ©Home Owner Soon, 2006-2009

17. Where does the property come from? Your client chooses the property they want, within the amount they have been approved for. Unlike some rent to own set ups, they are not forced to choose from a few homes. They can pick any affordable home they want, in any area that best suits them. This means the house they loved and were initially declined for from the bank could be theirs after all. 13 ©Home Owner Soon, 2006-2009

18. So who buys the house? There are two sides to Home Owner Soon. 14 ©Home Owner Soon, 2006-2009 Investor Tenant-Owner Home Owner Soon

19. So who buys the house? continued... Home Owner Soon essentially sits in the middle, with our eager investors on one side and our eager tenant owners on the other. When your client, which you have referred to us, finds that dream home they are looking for, they let us know. We then tap into our database and offer the deal to one of our savvy investors. The investor that scoops up the deal then purchases the home in question and the lease to own agreement then kicks in. 15 ©Home Owner Soon, 2006-2009

20. What happens when the lease is up? The lessee has the option to fulfill the purchase at the end of the term. A sale or transfer price is set at the beginning of the lease based on realistic appreciation rates for the area in question. The lessee also has the option to walk away from the purchase at the end of the lease. Doing so however, would mean the forfeiting of all monthly credits accumulated and the entire security deposit to the lessee. 16 ©Home Owner Soon, 2006-2009
