Seller's Description

Buy Now, Settle Later – A Flexible Path to Ownership

This is a rare and flexible opportunity to secure a near-new apartment in the highly sought-after Grammar Zone, available under a rent-to-own arrangement — or as a straightforward purchase for buyers ready now.

Ideal for professionals, young families, and investors, this option allows you to move in immediately, with weekly payments helping you work towards ownership.

Instead of paying rent that goes nowhere, part of each weekly payment reduces the purchase price, just like a mortgage.
________________________________________
How the Rent-to-Own Option Works

• Agree on a fixed purchase price upfront
• Choose a settlement timeframe: 1, 2, 3, or 5 years
• Pay an initial deposit (typically around 20%, negotiable)
• Live in the apartment while making weekly payments:
o A portion reduces the principal
o The remainder covers interest, based on published bank rates
• Settle early at any time if you’re ready

The price is locked in from day one, meaning any capital growth is yours.
________________________________________
Example – 1-Year Rent-to-Own

• Purchase price: $769,000
• Deposit (20%): $153,800 (negotiable)
• Balance after deposit: $615,200
• Weekly payment: approx. $757 per week
• After 12 months, the balance reduces to approx. $603,230

Longer terms are available, with the purchase price increasing by $20,000 per additional year.
________________________________________
Buy Now Option (Investors & Ready Buyers)

For buyers who are ready to proceed immediately, the apartment can also be purchased outright, bypassing the rent-to-own structure.

• Currently rented long-term at $949 per week
• Strong demand location
• Ideal for investors or owner-occupiers
