What is lease purchase contract?

A lease purchase contract is a legally binding agreement between a landlord and a tenant that combines elements of both a lease agreement and a purchase agreement. In this type of contract, the tenant has the option to purchase the property at a later date, usually after a certain period of time or under specific conditions. It offers the tenant the opportunity to live in the property and test it before committing to buying it.

What are the types of lease purchase contract?

There are two main types of lease purchase contract: 1. Lease with option to purchase: In this type, the tenant has the option, but not the obligation, to purchase the property. The purchase price is usually determined at the beginning of the agreement. 2. Lease with obligation to purchase: In this type, the tenant is obligated to purchase the property at the end of the lease term. The purchase price is often determined at the time of signing the lease agreement.

I like that I can erase parts and add text of size and font that I like and move it around so it's where I want it. When I erase part it doesn't cause the rest of the document to move around. It stays put. That is essential when I am editing a document with a puzzle at the bottom.

This is a great programme This is a great programme - but as an individual, probably not quite what I wanted as it is a bit expensive for the odd document.
