Who Uses Rent-To-Own?
Everybody! Rent-to-own customers include university and college students, corporate travellers on temporary assignment, military personnel and in-transit families. What they all have in common is that they have an immediate need for consumer household goods but can’t or don’t want to accept the long-term commitment that comes from purchasing major items such as furniture, appliances and televisions. Rent-to-own also caters to peoples’ immediate needs – sports fans might pick up rent-to-own furniture or a big-screen TV for the big game, exchange students could use a rent-to-own computer or laptop to keep in touch with friends and family while travelling overseas, while others might use the rent-to-own service to temporarily replace a broken appliance that is in for repairs.
