Rent to Own Homes in Saguenay — Your Mortgage Alternative — No Credit Check to Start, As Little As 2% Down

Getting declined in Saguenay says more about the bank's rigid template than about you. Variable income, a young credit history, or a deposit still in progress are the norm for the buyers our Saguenay rent to own program serves. You start with no credit check, bad credit is welcome, and no lender sign-off is needed to begin.

Here's how it works: you pick a Saguenay home, we help you secure it, and you buy it at a price agreed up front once you're mortgage-ready. While you live there, we help you build the credit history and the down payment — as little as 2% down to start — that a lender wants to see.

We help Saguenay buyers who are:

  • Growing families in Saguenay who need to move now but can't wait years to qualify at a bank
  • Newcomers to Canada building a credit history while they get established in Saguenay
  • Buyers who've saved some money but not the full 20% a traditional mortgage wants
  • Quebec households the bank turns down over a thin credit file or an unsaved down payment
  • The self-employed, newcomers building credit, seasonal and variable-income earners, and first-time buyers
  • Buyers with bad credit, no credit, or a past bankruptcy or consumer proposal behind them
