Welcome To SecondChanceHouses.com
We provide lease to own and rental houses to citizens living in the Columbus, Georgia area.
Our goal here at Secondchancehouses.com is to help honest and respectful tenants become homeowners or find a quality rental home. Unlike many traditional landlords and property managers we offer our applicants an opportunity to buy a house 'unconventionally' or to just rent a home if that is what you are looking for as well.
We provide a specially designed Lease-To-Own Program that will allow you to affordable lease a home today so that in the future or down the road you can qualify and buy it if that is what you want with traditional bank financing.
If you have enough money for a security deposit, first month's rent, administrative/option fee and are respectful and honest than you can qualify for our Lease-To-Own Program.
If you have enough money for a security deposit and first month's rent and are respectful and honest than you can qualify for one of our rental homes.
We do accept Happ on all houses as well.
We Are Looking For Respectful and Honest Residents
We look forward to working with tenants or future homebuyers who care about their lives and their futures. We are always looking for Respectful and Honest residents who always do a great job of communicating with us as landlords and keep a nice and clean home. We are looking for residents who take pride in their home and maintain both the outside and the inside of their homes. We want people who care about their future and who don't engage in unlawful or reckless behaviors. We are looking for residents who respect themselves and respect the property of others and are very considerate to their neighbors as well.
If you read this and say to yourself this sounds like me than we would love to work with you and help to provide you a home.
We Will Not Work With DeadBeats Or Reckless People
While we love working with respectful and honest people we will not under any condition work with Deadbeats or residents who are reckless. We have had some applicants with a bad history of leaving properties in the middle of the night, leaving debts unpaid, mulitple late payments over time, not giving proper 30 days notice before leaving and just no taking care of the homes they are living in and this isn't acceptable at all with us. If you have reckless or deadbeat behaviors and habits than we would ask that you please apply with another group of landlords. I promise you that you will not like working with us as we won't stand for this type of behavior and we are very quick to evict, sue for damages, and garnish wages if neccessary.
If you don't have good credit this does not automatically disqualify you from working with us. Our goal is to give you a second chance if you truly want a second chance. Please understand that you will be interviewed regarding your personal situation and history and we ALWAYS veify references. The simple fact is if you don't have any "good" references than please do not apply with us. Once again we don't condone these reckless behaviors and we really don't mind keeping our homes vacant until we feel we have the right person to work with us and live in each home that we manage.
Qualifications
We tend to follow similar qualification standards as many of our other fellow Landlords and Property managers in the Columbus, Georgia area. Please read the following list below to see if you meet these recommended requirements.
