Renting directly from property owners, commonly referred to as “rent from owners,” is an alternative rental arrangement that bypasses traditional real estate agents or property management companies. In this scenario, tenants lease a property directly from the individual or entity that holds its title.
Renting from owners offers several advantages, including the potential for lower rental rates due to the absence of intermediary fees, greater flexibility in lease terms as negotiations can be made directly with the owner, and often more personalized service as owners may be more responsive to tenants’ needs.
