Utopia is the world's 1st "Rent to Own" marketplace that, on one side, helps Americans achieve their dream of homeownership and, on other side, works to help Landlords of Single Family Rental Homes generate up to TWICE (2X) the returns, hassle free. We underwrite and qualify customers with the right renting and home buying budgets and then match them with the rental homes made available by Landlords of the properties. These approved tenants rent these qualified homes from our landlords, with the goal that they would eventually buy & own the home by/before the end of a lease term. Through our landlord platform, we provide a way for landlords with single family rental homes to list their move-in ready rental properties for our tenants, make higher returns, reduce repair & maintenance costs, and avoid all the hassles that come with owning the rental properties.

By partnering with Utopia, landlords can attract long-term tenants, ensure stable & much higher rental income and a committed buyer by/before the end of the lease. Utopia handles everything around your rental homes, making landlording hassle-free. Landlords, besides making attractive returns, also get to make a huge social impact by having their hard working tenants achieve their dream of home ownership.

You, as landlord, can list single-family rental homes that are move-in ready and are in 26 states where Utopia operates (details with Map provided on our home page). You must be willing to rent this home for at least 3 years and sell it if the tenant is willing and ready to buy at a pre-determined and agreed upon price between Tenant, Utopia and you. In any such event, You can always use the funds from sale to buy a new home and Utopia can help you again do “rent to own” arrangement to have you continue making fantastic returns on your investment.

Gross Returns for Landlords could vary from property to property and from location to location and deal to deal. In the past, these gross returns have been in the range of 12% to 25% per year with a target investment period of 3 or more years. In all the deals that Utopia has done so far, the landlords have made far better returns up to twice (2X) as much as they would have made if they had done the rentals by themselves.

The landlord retains full ownership of the property during the rental period and gives the option (but not the obligation) to buy the property to the tenant. If Tenant exercises the option to buy at a predetermined price (during the rental period) between Landlord, and Tenant then the sale of the property is made from the Landlord/Seller to the Tenant/Buyer. And, if the Tenant doesn’t exercise the option to buy during the rental period then the Property continues to be owned by the Landlord.
