About this House

THIS HOME IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL RENTAL! It is being offered as a LEASE PURCHASE/OWNER FINANCING which is perfect for someone that wants to buy a home but can not qualify for a traditional mortgage for whatever reason. Bad credit is OK and down payment assistance is available. All of our homes are figured on 30-year mortgages at an interest rate of between 5-7%. Buying a home from us is SIMPLE. When the banks say no, we can say YES. "If you are just looking to rent this home is not for you!"

PURCHASE PRICE: $194,500,
DOWNPAYMENT: 5% of the purchase price,
MONTHLY: $1,650.

100% of the down payment comes off the purchase price and secures your exclusive right to buy the home for the above purchase price at any time during your lease.

DOWNPAYMENT ASSISTANCE: We accept borrowed funds for closing. You may also be eligible to withdraw from your pension (or your 401K plan). If you only have part of the required down payment, we may accept the difference in additional monthly payments.

    "We’ve lived in Benton Park for 4 years and love it! Such a great neighborhood, so much to do. People are generally friendly. "
  • c b.
    "It's got covens, underground caves, an underused park, large vacant buildings, an arsonist at large, drones buzzing around at night with the bats. Restaurants and businesses open unannounced to residents and make no attempt to secure neighborhood patronage by a special or coupon or look at menu, probably then wonder why there's not much business.Wish there was a grocery nearby like a Trader Joes."
  • Mona P.
    "I visit Benton Park regularly. I go to restaurants and shop in the area. I love walking my dog in the park. Neighborhood folks are friendly."
  • kimberly d.
    "Interesting architeture, diversity of residents, some of the best restaurants in the city, active community events, beautiful parks, and affordable housing. Benton Park is the best place to live in St Louis for anybody of any age. Personally I have a toddler and she loves all the parks within walking distance. She loves to feed the ducks at Benton Park and eat pretzels from Gus'. Venice Cafe is simply a work of art. Best of all are all the events put on by the community, summer concert series in the park, a 5K race and a bicycle race. People who live here are engaged in their community and making St Louis a wonderful place to live. "
