How Rent to Buy Works (in 5 Simple Steps)

1. Choose your cabin

Browse our cabin range and choose the option that suits your space, lifestyle and budget. Most of our cabins are available for both Rent and Rent to Buy, so you can compare weekly pricing side by side.

2. Apply for Rent to Buy

Once you’ve chosen a cabin, we’ll help you complete a simple Rent to Buy application. This helps us understand your situation and confirm the best option for you.

If you’re unsure what you’ll need, don’t worry – we’ll guide you through it.

3. Finance assessment

Your application is assessed through RentZone Finance Ltd. This step may include verifying the information you provide and completing credit checks where required.

If approved, you’ll receive your agreement outlining the term, payments and key details. Once completed, we move forward to delivery.

4. Delivery & installation

Once approved, we’ll arrange delivery and installation of your cabin. We’ll confirm site access, placement, and what’s needed on the day so everything runs smoothly.

Your cabin arrives ready to use - so you can get set up quickly and comfortably.

5. Make payments and work toward ownership

You’ll make regular payments over the agreed term, with a clear pathway toward owning your cabin.

At the end of the term, ownership is transferred according to your agreement.

Rent vs Rent to Buy (What’s the difference?)

Both options give you the same great cabin. The difference is how long you need it for, and whether you want a pathway toward ownership.

Ideal if you need extra space quickly and want the flexibility of a shorter-term option.

How pricing works

Rent to Buy pricing depends on the cabin you choose and the term that suits you.

On each cabin listing, you’ll see a weekly “from” price based on a standard term and standard rate. Different term options are available, which can affect your weekly payment and how quickly you work toward ownership.

Your final weekly payment is confirmed during the application process.

Rent to Own – FAQ

It’s normal to have questions about Rent to Buy. Here are the most common ones we’re asked.

What is Rent to Buy?

Rent to Buy is a structured agreement that allows you to make regular payments toward owning your cabin over time. Instead of paying the full cost upfront, you work toward ownership through an agreed term.

Do I need a deposit?

A deposit may not be required in some cases, depending on the cabin and your application.

If a deposit is used, it can help reduce your weekly payments and/or shorten the term, meaning you can work toward ownership sooner.

We’ll confirm deposit requirements and options during the application process, before you commit.

Will a credit check be required?

In most cases, yes. As part of assessing your application, we may verify the information you provide and conduct credit checks where required.

Can I pay it off early?

Early settlement options may be available, depending on your agreement. Any applicable fees or adjustments will be clearly outlined before you proceed, so you understand your options upfront.

What happens at the end of the term?

Once the agreed term is completed, ownership of the cabin is transferred according to your agreement.
