OUR FULL STEP-BY-STEP PROCESS
From First Consultation to Final Purchase
Our process is simple, structured, and goal-focused. NSOG helps qualified clients move into a home under a rent-to-own agreement while working through a 24-month preparation period designed to support credit readiness, financial discipline, and future purchase.

THE PREPARATION PERIOD
24 Months PreparationTime for Ownership
On-Time Payments
Clients are expected to make all monthly payments in full and on time. Consistent payments help show financial responsibility and readiness for homeownership.
Credit Readiness
Clients must have a minimum credit score of 590 or actively work toward reaching that goal during the program. Credit improvement is an important part of preparing for final purchase.
Financial Discipline
Clients are encouraged to pay bills on time, reduce debt when possible, avoid negative financial activity, and maintain stable income throughout the program.
Property Care
Clients are expected to care for the home as if it were already their own by keeping it clean, safe, and well maintained.
Communication
Clients should stay in communication with us and report any major financial, personal, or property-related changes that may affect their participation.
Purchase Preparation
As the program moves forward, clients work toward mortgage readiness or another approved purchase method so they can complete the final purchase.
