Rental Credit Program
From their first month, residents earn 15- to 20-percent non-cash rent credits. These credits can be used toward a home purchase through participating builders. The management office can provide residents with an Equity® Rewards Certificate that can be redeemed for up to 3-percent off the price of a new home. This is a unique program because renters usually do not accumulate any kind of equity for the rent they pay.
