Rent-To-Own Frequently Asked Questions

The opening payment is equal to one month’s rent plus applicable security deposit.
Your first payment will be due 15-45 days from the delivery date.
Yes. Payments received at our office up to five (5) days past the due date will be processed as normal. Payments received more than five (5) days overdue may be subject to a late charge of up to $25.
You will be invoiced monthly with details on how to pay by mail, online, or by phone. Credit and debit cards, ACH and check by phone are accepted. Paperless billing and autopay options are available.
Yes. You can pay extra money on your rental payment every month. However, since there is no principle or interest in a rent to own agreement (like there would be in a typical car loan) it will simply pay your next month of rent. 1 payment paid moves your due date out 1 month. Likewise 1 and 1/2 payments paid will move your due date out 1 and 1/2 months. Saving your extra $$$ and taking advantage of our early payoff discount is generally a better option. Consult your contract or contact our office if you have any questions.
Yes, we do offer a Liability Damage Waiver also known as “LDW”. If included in the rental agreement and the account is in good standing, the LDW will free you from any responsibility of damage done to the building by fire, flood or other natural disaster. Upon approval of an LDW claim, Carefree Rentals LLC reserves the right to terminate the contract, repair, or replace the building with a comparable unit.
Since the LDW is a Liability Damage waiver only, and not insurance, Carefree Rentals LLC assumes neither responsibility for the contents of the building nor any damages incurred by negligence, accident or any other personal oversight.
Yes! We offer an early payoff discount that you can exercise at any time during your rental period if your account is in good standing and current. Discounts vary according to your contract. Check your agreement or call us for details.
Under certain circumstances this may be an option. Contact our office for assistance.

Yes. However, the building must not be moved without express written permission from Carefree Rentals LLC. You are liable for any and all fees associated with moving the building.
You must have approval from Carefree Rentals LLC before making any changes to the building. Unauthorized changes may void the warranty. Building must remain unattached and accessible.
Yes. There is no penalty to return the building nor is there a refund. You are simply renting on a month to month basis. Contact our office on assistance in closing your account.
Filing bankruptcy will not exempt you from a rent-to-own contract. Contact your attorney for specific details. No penalty is incurred for returning the building.
If your account becomes more than thirty (30) days past due your building may be retrieved. Pay close attention to payment due dates and pay on time to avoid late fees and delinquency. Using our recurring payment options is a great way to stay current.
