Reviews of Home Partners of America
Cristina Zimmermann-Stock
Working with HPA is a great experience. It's an amazing opportunity for Realtors and future buyers. They are extremely responsive, fast, easy to work with, answer all the questions and get the job done. I recommend it for all my clients that wish to buy a house one day, because the can Rent to Own! And pick the house with a Realtor.
Beautiful Queen A
Was approved in June, found the home we loved a few weeks later, put in an offer in, just closed, and now waiting to move in while we wait for the paint to be done. I would recommend this program to anyone not able to get into a traditional home loan just yet. Would also recommend having a real estate agent, which made home process buying super easy! We are excited about the future in our new home and eventually buy it completely. Thanks to Joel & Susan you guys are the best.

My experience so far has been great! It's taken a little bit to get everything rolling but that's how it goes in real-estate it actually worked out for me quite well! I'm moving from California and the timing works out perfect with my company's relocation package. Only downside I can say is that the price went up a bit prior to closing out completely. But thats to be expected with other offers coming in. I got an amazing home in a nice neighborhood can't wait to move in!!!
Thank you Home Partners
Dolores Benavente
Our first experience with a right to purchase hone. Qualification was easy. Processing and communication with home partners was excellent. What more to say other than Thank You Home Partners of America! You made our dream home a reality. Would recommend to anyone looking for a hone. A+5Stars!
Sue Clark
Home Partners provides a path to home ownership, and their systems and processes are excellent. Anyone interested in buying a home should look into this company and the opportunity they provide. As a Realtor, my recent experience as well as my client's was fantastic!
Marcus White
What can I say about HPOA? They have made my wife and me so happy. The process took just a little over a month. Yes, we found a couple of houses that didn't meet their criteria, but when we did come across this one, it took them one day to lock it in. The home was ready to move in. Small things occurred, like the door locks, refrigerator, and garbage disposal, but they responded quickly for repairs.
I love that we didn't have time to do all the research and paperwork on the property, but how they do it for you.
I just sent my niece the information, and I strongly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a new home but still has something to work on.
Thank you so much, HPOA. You have made a dream come true!
Jennifer Petersen
Great experience with the move in process. Only issue is who they choose to partner with as their property management company while you are renting to own. Pathlight property management is impossible to get ahold of among a multitude of other issues- you should check out their recent reviews on google. Home Partners, if you see this, please consider partnering with a better property management company so that your good reputation isn’t harmed.

I was almost unable to help my client as she needed a 4-5 bedroom home for her and her children. She was only prequalified for 250k and we could not find anything in that price range that was large enough and did not need major work. She was ready to give up. I introduced her to home partners and she was able to find the home of her dreams. New construction 4 bedroom large home. By partnering with Home Partners the solution was born. She was elated!!
Jose Mitogo Mba
I thank my God for this program, even though I am qualified to buy the house traditionally but I got curious to use that program, and I was quickly approved, now we are sending offers. In fact, I am here in advance to thank Home Partner for everything so far and my God bless them.
Love you guys.
My house is in under contract now.
Tyrica Mederos
They are good and they make sure to help you with the process. The only downside is that when you find the house you want and it's under your price they would offer a lower price. Which cost me the home I really wanted.
Yohan Yalda
home partners have been a good company for my clients. I have been using them for the past 4 years. I like the way they communicate and how easy they make it to get into a home.
I would recommend them
Janet Couch
The process was so extremely easy! We loved the flexibility of being able to chose the home that WE wanted! We went to see our forever home in person on 10/29/2019 and closed on 11/21/2019! Move in day was 12/06/2019! Thank you Rob Miller (Real Estate Agent) for all of your help!
***UPDATE*** My husband and I purchased our home from Home Partners of America's rent to own program on 08/26/2020!!! YAYYYYY!!!
Brittney McGuire (Realtor)
I work with Home Partners to help find homes for people who are almost ready to buy and are in a spot where they need something now. Home oartners has a great program to rent with the option to buy.
Reshia Jewell
The only warning I have is that if you don’t have your funds available then wait before you start the process. As soon as you apply, someone is contacting you, you receive an approval/denial within 1 business day. And the process just continues to move at a fast pace. My realtor asked what I was looking for and we were looking at properties within days. When I found the home I loved, once again the process was fast! An offer was put in and the homeowner accepted it by the next day. In all this was a 2 week process. Customer service is A+. They continue to follow-up with you to see if you have questions, if there are any issues that need to worked out, and they provide you with several ways to reach out to them. Definitely recommend!
Autumn Lori
This review is specifically for an agent named Ray ❤️ THE SWEETEST MOST UPFRONT man you will ever work with. He was patient with us and our family during viewings. 10/10 would recommend. We didn't end up buying a house due to timing but rest assured when we are able to go down this avenue we will be working with Ray! Thank you so much!

UPDATE 11.29.22: We just moved out yesterday. We needed to move early and their fee to amend the lease was within reason. We had a fantastic experience over the last two years. I never wondered about the status of a requested repair. The company is responsive and available to actually speak to. They're sites are self-explanatory in terms of making payments, seeing documents, or requesting maintenance. Overall, our experience has been phenomenal. (And I'm saying this before knowing how much of my deposit they keep). If you are looking for a rent- to-own with clear terms and expectations, or if you're interested in renting to bridge a gap before your next buy, they are the ones.
2 years ago: We stumbled upon this company by accident and we are really glad we did. We owned a home in Texas and after 4 years decided to make the jump back to the Midwest. Generally, work opportunities have led us to move quite a bit so buying a home for such a short stay was not the best option for us. While we hope to find our long-term home, we were still not convinced buying again is the right choice for us right now. HPA has afforded us the opportunity to rent a home of our choosing for longer than we owned in Texas. Additionally, if our new location is more permanent we have the option to purchase the home we've settled into based on a price given to us up front (before we even made the rental deposit). HPA has given us what we needed most - time and stability. For us it's not that we can't buy a home now, it is the luxury of not needing to before we are ready to say "yep, we will be here for a time long enough to warrant a mortgage". Also, HPA has been more than transparent with us a renters. We received multiple emails and reminders for the various stages of the process, as well as portals to access our account online and submit maintenance requests. I have called in to customer service a couple of times for various purposes and have always been treated respectfully. My inquiries have always been addressed swiftly and professionally. I have never rented a home where I felt completely in sync with their expectations of us as tenants and what we can expect from them as our landlords. This is a great option for families who, for various reasons, are not ready to buy.
Aly Jurgemeyer
Home Partners of America was a good, easy process. Approval was a little annoying just because we are self employed but they were more than willing to work with us through the whole process. We found a house, they closed and we moved in last week. The reason for the 4/5 stars is the restrictions on the homes. They have a 2 acre max which we weren’t fond of, we wanted a minimum of 2 acres but had to settle for less. Also, though this isn’t a complaint against HPA necessarily, the property management company they work with once closed, Pathlight, is the WORST company I have ever dealt with by far. It would be nice for future tenants if HPA would go with a new property management company, you can even tell by Pathlights online reviews. Other than that, happy with HPA and would recommend.
James Silcox
Working with HPA was good. They turned down several house we looked at for reasons that I don't really understand, but that is fine.They got us in a really nice house in the end after a few tries.
However, the property management company they are using is straight garbage for lack of better terms. Pathlight took a month to fix my air conditioner in 90+ degree temps and I have small (5 year old and a 6 week week old)children in the house, still waiting on my fridge to get fixed as I have had to through 100's of dollars in food away, and they have yet to pay my HOA which is in the contract and now my kids can't use the amenities that's in our neighborhood because of it thier incompetence.
Fixed, I dont think so or that plastic would still not be stuffed in the ice dispenser keep cold air in my refrigerator.
Joann Wheeler
As a realtor in Arizona I have found Home Partners of America an excellent company to partner with. It gives me the opportunity to help my rental clients with the possibility of home ownership in their future.
Lynnette Young
Pretty good over the contact nice people. You DO MIT have contact with a person EVERYTHING is done via email, but a good company so far we just moved in 2 weeks ago so let’s see!
Cyrene Rhietta
I filled out my application and paid the fee for the background and credit check . Within 30 mins I received an email stating I was denied due to my credit score .Before applying I was told they check Trans Union yet I was not informed that there is a specific credit score model that they use to determine eligibility . The score stated on the denial letter was 48 points points lower than shown on the platform I use to check my credit . Though I am very disappointed because I believe this information was withheld intentionally for financial gain , I am posting this review to help inform others that AmRent (the company Home Partners of America uses to check your credit) uses a FICO 8 model to calculate your credit score , which is what a representative told me when I called them. So be sure you know what that number is before wasting your money applying.
Saronie Helgerson
Was approved in November, found the home we loved a few weeks later, put in offer in, just closed and now waiting to move in while we wait for paint to be done. I would recommend this program for anyone not able to get into a traditional home loan just yet. Would also recommend having a real estate agent, made home process buying super easy! We are excited for our future in our new home and eventually buying it completely.
Innately Dramatic
The easiest way to purchase a home!!! I only received the most respectful courteous customer service agents. I recommend Home Partners to anyone looking for their first home or buying another one. This was such a fun experience and my entire family absolutely love our 5 bedroom 3 bath home!!!
Cynthia Perez
Smooth experience from start to close! I highly recommend. The program is great and really made our dream of home ownership a reality!
alberta carter
This hasn’t been an easy process but having an amazing agent Jillian to help us though the process and the company closing quickly I say it was an absolute pleasure using them looking forward to moving into the new home in 11 more days
Angelica Cardona

Veronica Hicks
Great alternative to the standard/old rent to own programs. Quick, easy, efficient, cash transaction with several options for the buyer.
Heather Hyllested
Working together with Home Partners has been nothing short of perfect.
My clients who are looking for an upfront lease to own option this is the company.
They actually respond to both my clients and to myself anytime either of us has a question.
They make this process easy and there are no hidden costs or fees lurking around the corner, I recommend this company to any of my clients who may just not qualify for a mortgage loan right now but will qualify in the future.

Brain was my rep with home partners and he was extremely helpful with answering questions. There were no homes in my metro area, therefore it was hard for me to utilize the program. However, this is a great program for those who see the opportunity in it.
Update: 1/20/2022
I was able to switch my metro area found a home. Currently waiting to see if seller will accept the offer. The process so far has been smooth. Customer service on home partners side is responsive and professional.. Please keep in mind that HPOA is for profit and they are in the business of real estate. I see a lot of reviews about how homepartners is in it for the money, this is true. Home Partners is basically fronting you money to get into a home. They are trusting that your desire to become a homeowner is strong. If your goal is to become a homeowner then you will do what it takes to hold up your end of the contract.
drew moser
Home Partners is unlike any other rent-with-an-option-to-buy program. There are many scams out there that people should beware of, but this company is trustworthy... As a Realtor myself, Home Partners has been a valuable partner of mine for over 4 years, and literally helped dozens of families with whom I've retained as clients. My business and brand is "ME" (as an individual), and I wouldn't affiliate myself with an organization that wasn't top-notch.
Mary Cothren
This is a great way to be able to buy a house in the Denver market. Rent for a minimum of one year with option to buy, but you’re not obligated to buy. The price of the house does increase with inflated percentage, but you won’t have to enter any bidding wars over the house. Luke was my agent that helped me through the process. He and Keeley showed me houses and helped me get into a great house. We were in constant communication throughout the whole process of HP buying the house.
Liza King Team (Liza King Team)
I used Home Partners for some clients that were in need of a home. The transaction was smooth, great communication throughout and never a doubt of what they needed. If anyone needs a home that thinks they can't buy one, let me know and I would be happy to put them in touch with Home Partners of America.
Sondra Lee
Just completed the process with HPA and I am thrilled to move in to our new home in 2 weeks! In this economy it's nice to know exactly what our rent or purchase price of the home will be, and the "try before you buy" feature is nice too!
Tanya Morton
If you are looking to purchase a home, but aren't quite ready yet. Home Partners has the key. Unlocking doors for future homeowners with transparency and ease! Love working with Home Partners and finding solutions to homeownership. The ability to lock down your purchase price for 5 years in this market no matter what it is doing - Priceless!
Timothy Louis
Everything started out great, until we told them we couldn't close on the house. They kicked us out the program and once that happens you can no longer be apart of it. What happened to second chances? Even convicts get second chances. The program is good, just wish we knew more about the rules before we got so far into closing.
Diane Newman
Process was not easy..started in May gave up in September..their offer something low..house didn't pass inspection that was in their portal..just exhausted after months of seeing and wanting homes that never happened for me.
Kelly Shaw
We had Home Partners get us a home in Phoenix and after 12 months we purchased it. They bought it for $350,000 our purchase was $367,400 and when the appraisal came in it was valued at $538,000. We just sold it yesterday for $580,000. Over $200,000 just from renting. It doesn't get any better than that.
Angela Bonin-Jacobs
My family was relocating out of State. HPA provided an easy, efficient, and amazingly easy process to purchase a phenomenal home in the area we desired and we never had to miss work or catch flights for inspections, closings, etc. If you are relocating HPA is the only way to go! They also offer services to families that are not relocating; HPA forever has my business and referral!
Blake Rounkles Northern Realty
Awesome company to work with. I have helped 3 people so far in the last couple of months get into homes that wouldn't have the traditional way of getting a bank loan. Look forward to working with them soon.
Susan Zalatan
We were so discouraged trying to find a place to rent, so many scammers out there, and everything is so expensive. Came across home partners of America, worked with Kelly Shaw, and Cheryl Shaw, the Office gals Lindsay, and Ashley were dreams!
We found a home, because these people are very dedicated and want to see people get some thing they can afford, and eventually own.
I probably was the biggest pest in the world and they were always fun, professional, helpful, knowledgeable, and just darn nice.
Excited to move in on Valentine’s Day!
Kari Turner
My husband and I were recommended here by a friend and we recently went through the pre-qualification process. Though it's not an option while we remain in our current income bracket, the rep I spoke to was super helpful and reassuring about resuming the process in the future when we are ready. Very impressive service and genuinely helpful to people in the effort to procure sustainable, secure housing.
Annette Camara
I am glad I contacted this company through an agent I met. I have been looking for housing in Gwinnett County Atlanta since I moved here september 2021. No luck, everyone was asking for a huge deposit, high credit score, and 3 x the income. After HPA reviewed my file , they gave me a budget and rent maximum they can cover and it worked for me.
They usually respond quickly and the agents are awesome.
Finally got a place I can move my kids in .
Thanks HPA for giving this divorced mom of 3 a place to call home. I am going to be using all resources you also provided for credit repairs and other financial literacy.
THANKS SO MUCH!

I have rented with Home Partners for nearly 2 years. When I began the program, the representative reassured me that purchasing the property would be a smoothe process. The rep even stated, "there is no rent due the month of purchase." The rep says, "we know saving for the closing costs is important, so we try to make it easier. Also, did you know mortgage payment isn't due the first month either? Because closing on a property can get expensive. Everyone tries to give the new home owner a break." I was sold on the program and decided to join.
Fast forward to my closing. I can't get proof that the solar panels are paid off, no matter who I speak with. I didn't pay rent the months of March because closing was set for March 26th. Because of a few unknown reasons including lender issues on my end and no solar panel info on there end, closing was push till April 8th. Now I'm being charged a month's worth of late fees for now paying March's rent. On top of March and a prorated April's rent. Apparently, the representative I first spoke with was wrong. You still have to pay rent the month of purchase.
Unfortunately, no one ever reached out to me. No one ever called to see why the rent wasn't paid. No email, nothing. I always paid my rent so you would think somone would question something. However, I have to now pay $8k to settle the month of March. And I still don't have proof that the solar panel are paid off so all I can do is hope there is no lien placed on the property due to unpaid solar panels that do not work.
With all that being said. I gave 3 stars because besides this.... the program is actually pretty good. I got the house I wanted locked in at an affordable price from 2 years ago. No landlords or property managers bug you unless you reach out to them. Most issues are handled in a timely manner. We didn't run into any major problems until now.
Raheem Alla
The process with getting into my home was a very quick and smooth transition. I would say it took maybe a total of 5-6 weeks for me to put in the app, get approved, find the home I want, put the money down that was asked and home was closed on. Love their program
R Schwab
As a real estate agent, I had a great experience working with Home Partners of America.
Michelle Gallegos
As an Realtor, I have been waiting YEARS for a Program like this to come along. This is finally a Rent to Own (type) of business model that I am willing to share with my clients. It is fair and equitable to both parties, states all terms up-front for the renter/potential buyer, and allows the renters, could be buyer, to essentially hold at bay the skyrocketing inflation in our ever-booming Phoenix-Metro real estate market. I highly recommend this program! Feel free to contact me for more information.
Sophia Smith Ministries
I had a wonderful experience from beginning to end. My agent was patient and walk me step by step through the process. I would recommend this company to anyone who’s looking to Rent to Own Guaranteed.
Amanda Mineard
We had absolutely no issues getting approved for a home with HPA. We have since moved in and have had numerous issues with our home such as ac problems, broken dishwasher, no oven racks and now a major septic system issue but Pathlight has taken great care of our issues and has gotten contractors out in a timely manner to fix or replace all items. So far so good!
Greg Church
Great company that offers potential residents a great opportunity. Especially if they're in a place where they're not quite ready or able to buy a house for themselves. Working with them as a realtor was very easy and simple. The team was very responsive and understanding through what was a difficult real estate deal (for reasons unrelated to Home Partners). I would gladly work with them again!
Scott Haddow
My customer was unable to get a loan but was able to qualify for Home Partners of America's program. Now instead of just renting they have a choice to purchase that property from Home Partners.
Kendra McKay Johnson
Homepartners is a great company to work with. They make sure they take the time for maintenance repairs. They also have great customer service.
Dearick Milton
I had a fantastic experience with Home Partners. After I completed my online application, I was immediately sent contact information for the realtor who would be assisting me in finding a home. The realtor set me up in the FMLS system so that I could begin to receive notifications of homes in the areas I preferred to live. As well, she advised me to always go to the Home Partners site as well. Once I found a home, the realtor and Home Partners moved thoroughly and quickly, providing me with documentation throughout the process. From the time I identified the house I wanted to purchase, it took 3 weeks to close. Everyone involved in the process was amazing and I am very happy with the service and professionalism I received.
Christina Trussell
Home Partners was very easy to work with. Their staff is prompt, friendly and helpful. I would recommend anyone who is looking to purchase a home in the future to check them out. Once approved, the process is very smooth and you get the home you choose. As a Realtor, this has allowed me to help my buyers who were not able to qualify for a traditional loan at this time to move into the home of their dreams. Perfect solution for those who are working on building their credit or those who want to "try out" an area for a couple years before committing to the purchase of a home.
Joanne Tanksley
I'm so glad I found HPA! The process is easy and expectations are clearly stated. I'm looking forward to moving to my new home
jaysen wagner
Sounds really good up front. But the program does have some major challenges that will come later on. If you want to rent a home you really like it would be good to a point. However if you want to buy it later on... not so much.
lisa crespo
We stumbled onto Home partners while looking for a house to rent. I'm happy to say that this is a wonderful opportunity for us to rent to own. I'm looking forward to seeing the outcome. Hopefully with us being able to purchase this house!
PrinceM_K_A
Absollutely amazing service!
Responsivcoe and consumer friendly. Caters to the needs f my family and has helped us find a home that we love in a state that we are new to. Great for a family looking to be in a great home and awesome comunity in friendly neighborhoods . Would totally recommend!!!!!
Lisa Kelley
The Home Partners experience was amazing all the way from application into the program through the purchase of my home. I purchased my home one year after moving in and leasing through the program. When I decided I love my home and wanted to purchase, Home Partners helped me through the process all along the way. (I was a first time home buyer so that was very important and so very appreciated. Sandi was my closing contact and she went above and beyond to help with last minute closing docs needed from my lender). I have recommended this program to my friends and will continue to do so!
christy smith
We were approved but cant pull the trigger until July. Our agent is the best. We have enjoyed our experience so far. I recommend this program!
Mandi Dulingel
The customer service was great. I moved out of state and this was a better option than renting an apartment or buying a home before I knew the area. The upfront numbers are awesome and my realtor verified the appreciation versus the sales price definitely would work in my favor. This was a great program.
Cami
Helped get us in our first home! Quick easy and fast, but you must be prepared to put down a large amount of money.
Deb Rollins
We found a home that works for our multi-generational household and HPA purchased it. We now have a lovely home as either a long-term rental or an eventual purchase. The company has quite a few restrictions as to the type of property and its condition, but they all make sense if you look at it from their perspective...and I appreciated them for being so firm in their expectations from the seller because I have a better home in the end.
I really feel this is a great option for people who need help with that leap into more permanent housing for their family. I have absolutely no complaints about the company and they did a great job of keeping me informed of each step and what was needed.
Cimone Buchanan
I got the house I wanted with no problem. It was so smooth and easy. Thank you.
Lucy C
Great lease with a right to purchase program!!! My whole family loved it! In fact I will recommend this program to anyone I know. Their employees are professional, and very transparent with the whole process. It's an easy process and nothing tricky. Get to live in a beautiful house that I want to own in future when I cannot even get a mortgage yet? How nice!! Without Home Partners we would never be able to do so. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE FOR US!! Only downside is the property management company was slow in dealing with the move-in process sometimes. But other than that, everything went very well!!
P.S. My friend who successfully leased a house and planned to buy it in future recommended this program to us. And I'm so glad she did!
Ahmed Aydoner
Working with Home Partners was amazing! They are professional and response time is fast. Anytime I would call or email they would have someone that was genuinely interested in helping out. They went above and beyond because we ran into an uncooperative HOA. Home Partners was patient and flexible and because of this they were able to purchase an awesome home in a great location and they have another happy tenant!
I look forward to doing more deals with Home Partners in the future!
Keshorna Shantell
Homepartners is a great company. Im on the Realtor side of transaction. This program is a perfect opportunity for families/individuals. NO LENDER, NO CLOSING COST, NO DOWN PAYMENT. Its definitely a win win for everyone. Take advantage of living in a home... you picked from any approved areas, then have the opportunity to purchase later while living in the home. BIG WIN!
Darneill Jones
Moving into my new home in a couple weeks and I'm extremely excited. The process was easy and very straight forward.
Brian Zimpel
Great opportunity for future home buyers that are not ready to get into there dream home sooner than later. Bridges the gap for people looking for desirable rental options when going a more traditional route there is no inventory.
Home Approval Admin
A rental client of Home Partners of America purchased my sellers home. The process was fairly easy with great communicate. Their offer was within purchase price, inspection and repair request was all in a timely matter.
HPA response time was great as well. I was not impressed with the agent that represented the lease client however I can't hold that against Home Partners. I would partner with them again.
D W
Home Partners has been amazing to work with. The process was very transparent and seamless. The program is one I would recommend to any professional or family that is newly relocated, not quite sold on purchasing, or needs a little extra time to work on a down payment. I could go on and on but I will close with a Thank You to the Home Partners team. My family and I could not be more satisfied with our new home and our purchase experience.
Alexis Pinter
Great program, i've been able to help many of my clients through this rental program. Their communication through the rental process is great. They also help bridge that gap of rental and becoming a homeowner.
Angie Kubiak
We have lived in a Homer Partners home for almost 2 years. We are very grateful to be in a good home, reasonable rent (cheaper than some apartments around here!) and good location and schools. If we have issues with something that needs a repair, all you have to do is go online and tell them. They send someone within 24 hours! Awesome. Much better than living in an apartment buildings where you sometimes have to wait for days. Our rent increase every year is not high at all. It is nice to know what your rent will be during the 5th year and it is locked in per the agreement. The whole process was so easy to begin with, starting with picking the home and having Home Partners purchase it through our realtor. All went smooth and they explain everything from the beginning. Yes you can purchase the home if you want to, you are not obligated to buy either. If you are not happy, you can leave after 12 months as well. But we plan to stay for a while until we are able to purchase a home we want in the future. This company is not a scam. They are awesome for helping us out.
Lorena Ortiz Hadley
My husband and I planned on buying in Florida within a year but were uncertain of the exact location as we had a few areas we liked. Our Realtor informed us of this program that would work perfect in our circumstance. It enabled us to find a house with everything we desired and in one of the areas we really liked. However, Home Partners would do all of the legwork in purchasing it and we would be able to rent with option to buy if it's all that we expected. All departments were extremely pleasant and friendly every step of the way. They would quickly and efficiently address any all questions that I had in each phase. We will be moving into our new house in a few days and couldn't be happier! We would absolutely highly recommend Home Partners of America!
janeen lindsey
I absolutely LOVE Home Partners of America! They have given my clients who have not been 100% ready to purchase a chance to secure the homes of their dreams NOW with an option to purchase them later once they are in a position to credit wise!
What I love most is how swift the process is, the level of commitment/ professionalism that each employee has and the zero financial risk that my clients have, being that all deposits are 100% refundable AND AFFORDABLE and you pay no cost out of pocket to have the home professionally inspected or appraised which saves you a minimum of $1100 of upfront NON REFUNDABLE FEES.
I've called and checked in on my clients who have now been in their homes for close to a year or a little over and everyone is so grateful and happy with Home Partners, saying that they have loved the process and have had no complaints with either their homes or management! This motivates me continue to bring more of my clients to Home Partners! My clients If I could give 10 stars I would!

This was an unusual transaction because it was between two corporations instead of individuals. HomePartners worked really hard to help things go smoothly. They were very responsive when we ran into issues from the selling organization. A learning experience but I would definitely be willing to work with HomePartners again. They are a great option for a buyer who isn't quite ready to purchase a home but would like to choose their own home for a" rent to own" property! Great experience for my client!
Brian Mccarren
We had a great experience with Home Partners! It was easy process and everything went pretty quick once we were approved. We got to shop for a house and pick our move in date. They are super friendly and were very polite and answered all our questions. I will admit when the process started I was like this seems to good to be true, but it was a real good experience! Thanks Home Partners!
Shelley Giard
EXACTLY WHAT WE NEEDED TO BECOME HOME BUYERS!
Our experience with Home Partners was absolutely AWESOME! We worked with a Realtor to find the perfect home. The process of selecting our home, submitting it to Home Partners for approval, waiting for the inspection, and finalizing the purchase in the closing was flawless and fast!
We are SO excited to purchase the home that we selected after our first lease term. This program buys us the time that we needed to finish saving for a down payment. Knowing that the two months of our rental deposit can go towards that purchase once we secure the loan gives us a head start on that purchase!
We HIGHLY recommend this program to anyone who is SERIOUS about buying a home but needs a bit more time to get everything in order.

Home Partners of America helps people's dreams come true of becoming a home owner! My family and I are so lucky to have found them.
Renee Champagnie
This was my first time working with Home Partners and its was a great experience, they made sure to keep me updated with emails so that I could make sure everything stayed on track. Very easy to work with and the closing attorney they use is exceptional! Also I'm a Realtor for GA and if you are looking to work with Home Partners I would love to help!
Kim Adams
Wonderful company! As a real estate agent I was able to help a family transitioning to our Tampa Bay area. There is a very slim selection of rental homes to choose from. They were able to choose the perfect home for them that was for sale, Home Partners purchased it and they are now renting it with the option to purchase. This gives them time to get to know the area better and "try before they buy" the home. It was a smooth transaction for all involved.
Julie Moore
My Home Partners experience was a success! Quick service on inquiries. I had an agent that helped me through the process. A lot of properties in the area I was looking in to choose from. The only hiccup was that some properties listed on their site were not purchasable by their standards. These were properties with converted garages, which there were several that I was interested in. My timeline was tight to apply, get approved and selection of a house, so had I known those were not an option, I would not have looked at them. I absolutely love the house that I will be moving into and I am thankful for a company like Home Partners.
Sabrina Johnson
Home Partners is Awesome!!!!! They helped us find a great home for our family. The process was painless and they notified us each step of the way of what was coming next which eliminated the stress we could have felt. We plan on purchasing our home by June 2019 thanks to Home Partners. I recommend Home Partners to anyone not quite ready but close to purchasing a home to use Home Partners you won’t be disappointed/
Roy Powell
My wife and I were looking for a rent option to purchase Home buying program and fortunately we were able to find Home Partners of America. This has been a Great Experience from start to finish, all of the Customer Service Representatives have been Excellent!!! The Program from start to finish is totally "LEGIT" we worked with an AGENT who was FANTASTIC he made our home search very easy and we were able to move into our Dream Home in Wake Forest NC Area. I Highly Recommend Home Partners of America for your next Home Buying Experience.
If you are looking for an Agent I Highly Recommend (Roy Powell <[email protected]>).
Thank You Home Partners Of America Our Hearts are Filled with Joy!!!!!
Shanta Jackson
As an agent, you worry about your clients and making sure they are ready to purchase their home. Sometimes, your clients need to make that move even if they are not quite ready. Home Partners of America, was that change agent for my clients. Home Partners was that "in" that they needed. My clients are happy and the process on my end was simple and un-complicated. I will definitely recommend Home Partners of America to those clients that are close but just need a little time to purchase.
Shawntea Hales
Four months ago, I was having no luck with finding a home, I got frustrated and wanted to abort the entire process. However a change in my current living situation forced me to continue the process, and and I am glad that I continued . HPA has given me hope. Update after the new year.
Cindy Clarice
My client and I had a good experience with Home Partners of America. My client felt like it relieved her of the stress of the home buying. Home Partners has their systems down to a science which made for a smooth transaction. I highly recommend them to other buyers that I feel would benefit from their services.
Anna Mangieri
I'm a real estate agent. Home Partners provided my buyers with options they didn't know they had. My clients were relocating from IL to TX.
The move alone was stressful enough. And they had to deal with the pressure of selling their house in IL first. Our first deal fell through when their house didn't sell in time. That's when I introduced them to Home Partners. We found a great house, with no pressure and are very happy. Home Partners saved my deal and I have some very satisfied clients.
Ronald Brown
As a Realtor and working with both Sellers and Buyers, it is always a pleasure to work with true professionals!
Monica Servi
My experience with Home Partners Of America has been great! The process was easy to follow, the realtor was great to work with, and communication was responsive and quick. Through this program, we were able to close on a home that meet all of our needs (+more!). I couldn't be more thrilled with our experience. Highly recommend.
Paula Callahan-Wall
They were great getting my house. Would give them 5 stars but it was a long process to even get the lease signed. Would definitely refer a friend.
Stephanie Davis
JaLynn and Kelly were my agents and helped me through this process. They were wonderful and took a special interest in my unique situation and were extremely helpful. Even though Home Partners was buying the property, they looked for properties that fit my needs and that interested me. I would highly recommend Home Partners of America as an option to home ownership.
Tenna Burton
I highly recommend Home Partners! I closed my first transaction with them, and it was amazing! Every department I worked with from acquisitions to closing was very helpful. It was a smooth transaction! If you have clients that can't qualify for a mortgage at the moment, this program might be a great fit for them!
David DeLay
So far my wife and I have had a great experience. I was concerned about the process and had to read the lease agreement and the right to purchase contracts several times to fully understand them. The questions I had were answered quickly and all the people seemed to be very knowledgeable and helpful.
I just my new RTP contract and the get ready fees $7100 were deducted from my purchase price. I was concerned about them because the home we decided on was only 3 years old and couldn't possibly require that much work to make it ready for us.
My contact with the leasing part of this has been stellar. He has called me many times since we have moved in to make sure everything was going well. Very transparent and upfront.
So far a great experience
Cheri and David D
Catherine Christenson
Once we found an acceptable property, the process was easy. The only issue we had was that there were properties listed on the Home Partners site that were not really approved. Set me up for a heartbreak dreaming about a great house, but, we are moving next weekend into a GREAT house that we will quickly make our home! Thank you, Home Partners.
Janet Hudson
I was so happy to make my client's dream of being able to buy their own home through this lease-to-own option, that wouldn't have been possible for some time ahead. With the help of HomePartners, we made it all possible!
Clayton Young
My wife and I used this service through on of their partners in Colorado Springs. We were able to rent a home that was much nicer than anything on the market for essentially the same monthly rent price as other houses we had looked at. This service rocks! In our case the amount of homes we could choose from more than doubled. If you are looking for a rent home, I highly recommend checking out this service in your area.
Ana Sturt
I can not express how high I think of Home Partners of America. Their support, service, simple system, prompt response, professionalism and more makes me want to work with them again and again. I am working on my 3rd transaction with them right now and each time the transactions have been smooth. Their support team is incredible returning emails and answering the phone every time you need to talk to them, YES, answering the phone. There is always someone to answer your questions even on Saturdays. I absolutely recommend them. Great job HP!
Jean-Marcel Konan
This company has just been amazing!! You have been looking for such a long time to buy a house but we had very bad experiences with different builders . But when we saw a listing of our current we went there for a showing. We liked the house and applied to qualify ,it was an extremely process. We got approved right away and before we know we got the house. THANK YOU SO MUCH HOME PARTNERS OF AMERICA!!! You are simply fantastic!!!
Alyssa R
My boyfriend and I decided we were sick of living in an apartment, and that we were ready to rent a home. After showing interest in a few homes, a realtor reached out to us and told us ALL about HPA. The beginning of our application process was a little bumpy, but hpa was quick to call me, and quickly solved the issue. We found a house that we loved and I’m so happy to say that we move in may 1st If everything goes to plan.
My boyfriend and I are young, but extremely hard working. I feel that home partners recognized this and are giving us an amazing opportunity. Ultimately, I am so grateful for hpa because they are helping us achieve what we didn’t even think was possible.
I’m hopeful that our experience will continue to be pleasant:)
God bless home partners of America
LilDogMom
This is a great organization, and they have a really good program to help struggling people actually own a home. I can't say anything bad about them, other than the fact that they were very narrow on the areas they would allow us to purchase in. Some things don't make sense, but I'm sure they have their reasons. Their customer service was great, fast, and responsive. Unfortunately, our water was not turned on the day we moved into our home, but it turns out that was more of a city issue than an HPA issue. I would honestly recommend this company for anybody who is in the position that we were in and wants to own home.
Sally Snyder
As a Realtor, my experience helping relocating clients into a home they love using the Home Partners of America program has been SO POSITIVE! Home Partners is easy to work with, there's always someone available when I call, they do quick turn-around on paperwork as promised, and the whole process goes smoothly. I am thrilled to have a Home Partners option for my clients and I hope to have many more transactions with HPA in the years to come! Thank you, Home Partners!
Monique Christian
We were going to buy a house but were concerned we would not like the neighborhood once we moved in, or the house. We are from another state and this is a big move for us. We found this lease program on CL and did some research. Turned out our realtor was familiar and was able to help us find a house with them. We had much less out of pocket for our move, found a house that was more than we would have probably gone for but with affordable lease payment, and the whole process was super easy. We move in next week and everything so far has been smooth sailing.
La'Kesha Marshall
I am working with Home Partners of America to help people get into their dream home today as a renter while they begin/continue to prepare themselves to qualify for a traditional mortgage.
Cassandra Tarver-Ross
The process took a long time. Longer than expected. I was in temporary housing for two (2) months and started the process in December 2018. I just moved in the home on March 1, 2019.
For individual considering the program, please keep in mind there are specific homes listed on Home Partner's website under the option to purchase, however you don't know if something will be discovered during the process which will extend your time securing a home. I attempted to secure a home four (4) times with no success. It was so bad that I had to request to extend my approval date. Now that I am in the home, I am awaiting an initial yard service on the property. While I have been in the home for fourteen (14) days, no service has been provided.
I really believe this is a good program, but some adjustments are needed to make it a great program.
JaLynn Manser Shaw
I've worked with Home Partners Of America over the past three years, and the customer service has always been outstanding. Someone is always there to answer the phone with a friendly disposition, and they are extremely helpful in providing answers to my questions, and solutions to some of my/my client's challenges. I would highly recommend Home Partners if you are looking for a nice place to lease.. you can rest assured that you will be taken care of!
Kelsey B
We just moved into our new home here recently and were delighted with how things moved along. We were not having luck with any other property management companies for about six months in finding a home. This is when we came across Home Partners. They got through our application very quickly , although I found the fee was a bit high ( totally worth it in the end). Once we started our hunt for a house it went great. We did have to switch realtors and they fought us a little on that however in the end we were able to work with the one we wanted. The house we were able to close on is perfect, they even got the owner to replace the carpets! I did not like that we only had 72 hours from move in to do the property condition report as I did find more things as we were settling in to the house . I have not had any issues with Pathlight thus far ( the property management company home partners works with). I find the communication is pretty thorough, Nadene was great with explaining things to us. So far I have nothing but thanks to give for Home Partners helping us out with our rental situation since we are expecting a new baby boy here in March and couldn't be happier with the way things turned out .
Cija Williams
Home Partners was responsive to all our concerns. The process moved pretty quickly. Once they were able to close on the property the communication was sparse so that would be the area of improvement I would suggest. I have recommended them to many people and will continue to do so. Home Partners gives people who want to be homeowners the chance to be because you know what you will need to do to get the home and the timeframe in which to do it. Thanks Home Partners for giving me and my family a home.
Martin Schulz
Our realtor and Home Partners were great. We moved to the Denver area from Pennsylvania without having lived their before. We did not want to buy immediately because we did not know the area well and were afraid of buying someplace that a year later did not work for us. Allowing us to pick a home that was for sale and have Home Partners purchase it then rent it back to us worked perfectly. The only issues we ran into was that because Home Partners requires the use of their own purchase contract, we were not allowed to pick a house that was new construction. Builders all require the use of their own purchase contracts and we could not get either side to budge. It all worked out though, as we were able to find a relatively new house that was not a "new" construction.
Atlanta Home Brokers
This was the first transaction we had worked with Home Partners on. I was a little apprehensive at first, because I have worked with a lot of "investors" before. I was very pleasantly surprised. The response time was always very fast, which in our market is an absolute these days, The support staff was always helpful, they listened and made their decisions quickly to move the deal forward. We closed in two weeks. Overall a very good experience with them and we will recommend/work with them again.
Jessica Amber
What a great way to pick the home you want to rent with the option to purchase. The transaction was a smooth and easy process and Home Partners is very responsive . They are clear and precise and walk you along through the whole process. Definitely will recommend to all my clients that are wanting to pick out the home they want to live in and purchase in the near future.
sharon Hickson-Camack
This is such a awesome opportunity for our family. We have a second chance through this program to provide our children with a home to call their own and to rebuild our credit. The process was a little grueling with the specific criteria to find a qualifying home but I understand that they want to invest in only the best especially when we decide to buy the house at the end of the lease.
Aldo Coffin
We have seen Rent2Own and Lease Option programs before. But never felt that they were a truly viable option to pursue. Mainly be cause of the shady one-sided terms of the Lease Option Agreement or the fact that the home was previously purchased by the investor, which had been "leased" multiple times over many years which no one ever seemed to purchase. Then we found Home Partners of America. They not only had a Lease Option product, but they actually buy the home of your choice. Not just some limited list of homes that they had already purchased in the past. So we signed up to see if it was true. Just as promised we shopped for the home of our choice, with a licensed realtor of our choosing, in the neighborhoods we wanted to live and raise our family in. Home Partners purchased the home we chose and we now live in a home that we truly want to buy in a neighborhood we actually wanted to live in. HP is true to their word and keep their promises. We are so grateful for Home Partners of America and their Lease To Own program!
Cheryl Gudinas
As an agent, Working with Home Partners Of America was a good experience.
Tania Rosario
My experience with Hone Partners has been very good, the customer service experience has been wonderful, and the program is so practical for people like me that want to buy but have to wait a little more, you rent the home from them and when you are ready you can buy it, and you don’t have to move again!
And the best part is that you can choose the house you like, is like if you are buying your own home.
Bob Weibrecht
I had difficult time working with a client of mine to find a rental property for them. I told my clients about Home Partners of America.
After my clients successfully registered with Home Partners of America, a wonderful home was found listed for sale.
Home Partners of America purchased the home and my clients now have a place to live with an option to buy the home. Thank you Home Partners of America!
Darlena DuBois
Great legitimate program offering clients an opportunity to rent a home they can later buy when they don't currently qualify for a mortgage. As a licensed realtor, my client is extremely happy with his home bought by the program. Feel free to contact me, I'm happy to be a reference for Home Partners in Chicago west suburbs. Several other agents in my office have used them as well, with success story after success story.
Michael Pocisk
As a real estate agent, Home Partners is very easy to work with on a transaction. They prove detailed instructions for the real estate agent and are quick to respond to any questions that arise. They were also very flexibility as it relates the starting of the renters lease agreement. I plan on using them again to assist in rental clients.
THE Wigfalls
Initially, We were not able to qualify for traditional lending because we were new business owners however, HP made it possible for us to secure a home we wanted, in the area we wanted and for a price that would still allow us to purchase with equity. WARNING: To be successful, You must have a plan in place BEFORE contracting with HP. Have your credit, funds and closing cost and more ready to go. Do your research and be positive that the comps will match your RTP(Right to Purchase) amount. I must’ve asked a million questions and they were all very patient and they also went the extra mile to make sure we understood exactly what to expect from HP and what we they would expect from us. All promises were in writing, no hidden cost or fees and they held true to everything they stated at the forefront.If you’re in a situation where you are ready but you need to buy time, this is the program for you.
Thankful to God, we were able to close within year one of our contract and now we can say because of HP, WE ARE HAPPY HOMEOWNERS! Read Read Read and Read every document they send to you. Make sure your realtor can give good real estate comps and forecast of property values in your area and you’ll be just fine. HP worked amazingly for us!
Lastly, closing was a breeze (as breezy as this process can be lol)...We alerted them when we were ready and financed, they set up the closing and before we knew it, we were celebrating!!!
Thanks again Home Partners of America!
Josette Sanders
Very great customer service and wonderful conditions for qualifications for people with challenged credit in repair! Their rent to own option is unbeatable!!
Kateri Freeman
So far my experience has been wonderful. I can't have enough good things to say about this program. Our real estate agent Julie was very knowledgeable about the program and steered us to the perfect house. Since HPOA buys houses with cash, the seller took our offer over others because of the promise to close fast. Now I am just waiting on the property management company to tell me when it is ok to move into the house. Pathlight their property management company has also been very responsive and helpful. I can't wait to be in my own home. This will make it so much easier for me to purchase as I won't have to worry about other buyers offers and the selling price is set.
Cheri Jacques
From start to finish, getting into our new home has been surprisingly easy, smooth and ultimately rewarding. The Home Partners Team has all of the bases covered in the process and effectively communicated every step in the process. Professional and courteous throughout I always felt I was important and not just a number. I have already recommended Home Partners to a number of friends and coworkers.
Kathleen Floryan
My experience as an agent helping a future homeowner in a lease to own situation was easy, uncomplicated, efficient, and helped my clients get the beat house for their future. Home Partners of America really have a great system in place for persons wishing to lease to own and for sellers who are looking for an easy sale of their property. I Highly recommend to sellers, real estate professionals and future homeowners to work with Home Partners of America.
Darlene Radeschi
As Realtors/Brokers my husband and I had an excellent experience working with Home Partners. This was a perfect alternative for our buyers to settle into a home they love now and purchase it at a later date. This was our first transaction with Home Partners and we look forward to working with them again.
Lizbeth Wright
My realtor was exceptional! He worked diligently to not just find me any house, but a home that would be the right one for me. I enjoyed every moment of my experience with HPA. I have already recommended your services to several of my friends.
Sandra Antone
We only had a short time to pack up and sell our old house, move, and find a new house clear across the country. But some how Home Partners helped us make that happen. Their website was helpful in narrowing down what we liked before we even got into the state. I always tell folks about this program and will continue to do so in the future as well. Thank you for making it easier for us!
Gina Shores
Home Partners of America was a total dream come true to my clients who were struggling with the market, and this company was so easy to work with the whole way through!! 10/10
Lemanuell Meadows
It's thanks to Ben and Kim that me and my family found a house that satisfies all of our wants and necessities. They were very professional, great to be around, ready to answer any question i had, looked out for anything that may have interested us, walked us through all the steps as we progressed, all in all really great people with positive attitudes and a great if humor and sincerity. I'd recommend them to anyone who's looking for a house.
warren behrens
Quick, fast and in a hurry got our house ready to move in. Professional step by step customer service made it possible for my family to spend the holidays in our new home. I would like to thank Home Partners of America for the most hassle free experience ever. Having the ability to move forward in a time when directions are uncertain has improved the quality of my families' life so much.
Tajah Renee
The concept behind what they do is amazing and I am taking advantage of the program, however these are some issues I came across which made it a very difficult process and longer than needed:
1. It took 11 offers to get a home. Make sure you check their website for home criteria (no homes with above ground pools, etc.) they will not purchase. This will save you time and energy.
2. The website should only feature homes that HP is willing to purchase. It is misleading when you search the HP site for a home and it ends up being a home that is disqualified from the program.
3. Every request, every answer was a NO! I feel as though the reps in departments are trained to say no, even to the most simplest and justified requests. It takes a lot of pushback and emailing and calling to get a supervisor on the phone in order to resolve issues. I am grateful for reps that were helpful, however 9/10 of them were unhelpful and cold.
4. Understanding that HP is a business, and they are making a large investment in purchasing a home, they still forget about the human element and working with families and their needs. The purpose is to help families, not just make investments. There has to be some compromise in the process to help families work through the process.

I love transactions with Home Partners!
With the last transaction we were having trouble
with seller getting correct payoff and the closing department
was AWESOME with the communication and doing the most to
ensure my clients were able to move in on schedule.
Much much appreciated Sarah!
Denise Valle
Excellent service and and they made it easy for my client to get the home they wanted!
Ishmael Trent Draper
As an agent in Houston Tx. for over 9 years you always have clients that cannot get financing and need just a bit more time. They still need a house and Home Partners makes it possible to get the house they want in a great neighborhood as long as it makes sense for the company. My client was so impressed that I found a way to get the exact house they wanted. This is huge for my business. Home Partners was very professional and their process is super stream lined so it was a pleasure to work with them! FIVE STARS ALL DAY!!!
Sunnyag04
We wanted to stop leasing because we're tired of throwing money away but had no idea how to buy a house with no money for a downpayment. Our realtor told us about Home Partners and the rest is history. Everything about the process was easy and quick. We didn't have a single issue or problem and now we are moving into a beautiful home that we love. It's a fantastic option for getting into the home you want.
Denise Williams
Home Partners was very responsive and provided a solution when we needed it. Not only did my husband and I learn something from this experience, our realtor added another option that she could offer many of her clients moving forward. Thanks to Home Partners, we are moving into a home that we LOVE!
Adam Pena
I've worked with Home Partners for the last 3 years as a Realtor in Denver, CO with Coldwell Banker Castle Pines. I highly recommend this program for my clients who are not quite ready to purchase, but are taking the steps to qualify for a loan. Home Partners allows me to help them turn temporary situations into a permanent solution. Thank you Home Partners for allowing me to help put families on the path to home ownership today!
Lisa H
We are just finishing up the process with Home Partners. Now I read a lot of bad reviews of this company. But really, they don't seem to hide their costs, its all in the contract. They help people with bad credit, attempt to get into a home, give them time to fix and then sell it to them. Do they charge a lot for rent, yeah...but they are a business and they have to mitigate their risk somehow right. We know what we are getting into, and this is the price to pay when you have made bad financial choices. We will try to clean up our credit it two years and purchase the home. If we cant, well hey we can rent this place for 5 years as well. They went in paid CASH for the house we wanted closed under 30 days and we move in soon. They have kept us informed through the whole process. So unless I change my mind a year from now I rate them 4 stars, why not 5, well I think they jack the rent up a tad much and their policy on not fixing anything except structural damage is annoying, but I knew this before going into the deal.
Gina Doyle
I'm a licensed Realtor in Georgia, just took a Home Partners Seminar today, I think it was AWESOME. If you are a renter this is a great opportunity to lease with a option to purchase a great home in a great neighborhood. I spoke to other Realtors that have successfully closed transactions and they stated their clients were very pleased with the process. I am super excited about this program and the opportunities it offers.
Christen Ripoli - REALTOR
If you are having trouble competing in this market, or possibly need to do a little work on your credit, Home Partners of America is a great option. I'm a certified agent partner and would be happy to answer any questions you might have.
Kim Wilson (Associate Broker)
I'm a associate broker in Austin with All City Real Estate and I can say enough about how incredible Home Partners of America is!! They helped my clients who wanted to purchase in a year get into a house now. I was paid on the sale and my clients get to rent their new home for a year before buying it.
Byron Sims
Home Partners of America has been a great opportunity for families to began the home owner's experience. Great support staff through the whole process. My clients' are enjoying the lease to purchase program.
April Neuhaus
Excellent company to work with - my listing was purchased by this company in three weeks as a cash deal - great videos explaining all the steps in their process.
Celestine Reid
Home Partners has been a blessing for my family and also for 30 other families that my husband and I as real estate agents, have helped find homes for through this program since August 2020! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 …
OwnerOP77
All I can say is that Home Partners got my family into a home that in no way we would of found on the rental market. It's exactly the home that we wanted. HomePartners was able to offer the sellers full asking price and was able to close on the property in a little over 3 weeks, amazing.
We plan to purchase the home before our lease is up. If anyone is looking to rent a house I suggest going with homepartners because you will be able to rent and have a chance to purchase the property if you want to. We are very happy, and the process went really smooth. Thank you HomePartners.
UPDATE: We purchased the home about 6 months after the initial lease and everything went very smooth. Thank you.
Leslie Hawkins
At first I liked the concept of what this company does. But first of all it took such a long time to get approved - at least 2 weeks if not longer. Then, when I did find the home of my dreams, Home Partners went in with such a low ball offer the sellers wouldn't even consider it. Putting me back to square 1 and running out of time. I walked away from the company.
Eileen Sorensen
This was a wonderful experience! Escrow, Home Partners and Client as well as Listing Agent all did their due diligence. Home Partners always responds timely, efficiently and you can email or reach by phone and turn around timeframes are the best! I highly recommend this program and can't wait to get another Rent-To-Own Client to show how easy it will be to achieve ownership goals!
Rick Alexander
Our experience with HP has been excellent. This program is great for a family relocating to a different state. The program takes away the stress of having to sell or rent your old home before moving into your dream home. It's best to read all the fine print and ask your questions in writing to determine if HP is a good fit for you. We had a few glitches but we communicated our concerns right away and HP was prompt in addressing them. HP has been a true blessing for our family.
Rick Baker
I am a Realtor with Coldwell Banker in Frisco TX. (20 mins north of Dallas) and I have the honor of helping literally dozens and dozens of families get into the house of their dreams and get on the path to home ownership through the Home Partners program. Home Partners of America is a highly ethical firm that has always done the right thing in each transaction that we have done.
Home Partners is transparent about their processes and costs and are truly helping thousands and thousands of people get established in a home that they own. I am truly amazed at their program and their staff many of whom I have met. They are ethical and above board with each family and work in a collaborative effort to achieve the best outcome.
Home Partners is a dream to work with!
Kathy Serie
I represented the seller in a recent transaction and working with HP is simple, efficient, and fast. The buyer's agent was knowledgeable and very cooperative; great communication with all parties throughout the transaction. I had previously represented a buyer using HomePartners and our experience was very much the same. Would recommend any of my clients accept a great offer from HomePartners of America.
Kathy Kramer
We had a great experience with this program. They work fast and will only show you homes that will be accepted! They do not waste your time and are very clear about the terms with regards to lease and buying options. We worked with Jerome who was fantastic. If you are on the fence about buying a home (like we were!), this program is for you.
Diane Evans
Home Partners is a great program for buyers who are not quite able to make the purchase happen. As a realtor, it was a little challenging learning the way Home Partners process the transaction. Though once I knew how things worked and who to talk to, it was good!
Maja James
By far, this has been an amazing experience for me. Agents Jonathon Love and Felicia, went above and beyond to get my children and I into our dream home. They felt more like family than agents. Once the process was handed over to the property management company, the professionalism and response of their team has been impeccable. Alvin and Tierra from Pathlight are extremely knowledgeable as well as responsive. Thank you for such a great experience. I would recommend Home Partners to anyone who is looking to buy or rent to own!
Chris Lynch
Home Partners provides a unique housing opportunity to families who would not be able to do it the traditional ways for many reasons. As a realtor dealing with them , they were easy to communicate with. Would recommend to any families that want to own a home but cannot the traditional way.

We entered a 3 year lease to purchase with Home Partners of America in 2014. We closed on our house in March of 2017. They were fantastic to work with. Everything went exactly as promised. We are 100% satisfied with the process. We bought our house in the greater Dallas, TX area. Home Partners is based in Chicago, so they use a property management company called Pathlight. Pathlight has some really crappy reviews but we don't have any complaints. We only needed to contact them once or twice thankfully. I have and will continue to recommend Home Partners to friends and family.
Jason McIntosh
As with any establishment or place of business you will always have disgruntle individuals who feel they have been wronged... Whether there is merit to their complaint remains to be unseen but the damage is still done.
I am a Realtor® in Florida and will endorse Home Partners fully. I have been involved in transactions both on the buying side and selling side with great success.
The fact of the matter is you will have pitfalls, hurdles, and obstacles before the closing table despite how you get there. Cash, VA, FHA or HP etc, does not matter!
Home Partners is transparent, hiding nothing from any parties involved. It is the fiduciary duty of the Realtor® to disclose all the facts along the way so blame does not necessarily fall upon Home Partners.
It is a great feeling to provide a "Pathway to Home Ownership" to good people who may have had bad things happen.
As far as the approved areas are concerned... DUH! This is Real Estate folks and resale value and appreciation has everything to do with it. Does not matter if you have children in school or not... Do you want your "potential" home be worth more when you sell it?
Do your due diligence... Speak with an educated Realtor® . This is an extremely flexible program and is a much better choice in my opinion than most rental options.
I would be happy to provide real live references if needed.
Best of luck to All... I hope this was helpful and I for one will continue to service my clients with their best interest and needs in mind...
Doug Merriott
As a Realtor Home Partners fills a vital role in my toolkit to help my clients. Their service is not for everyone but when you connect a tenant with their lease purchase program it is magic! Their team did an amazing job communicating with me and the tenant, making the process extraordinarily easy.
Johndell Sanders
I'm A Real Estate Agent in Georgia told my client about this program . She sign up with in a month we were under contract with a beautiful house. Process was Easy. I will recommend to my other Clients, Thanks Home Partners of America
Dave Arnold
The Add for the house said had a fully fenced yard as we looked at the house there was no fence but the house was just painted so assumed it just hasn’t been put up yet. The property management company will NOT talk to me about this issue even though the cost of the house that we are paying for is wth a fully fenced yard. But yet it’s not! So we are definitely over paying for this house! and yes we were told that a fence would be put up here we are 3 months later. Still waiting....
Shadonna Starkes-Clemons
My husband and I had the pleasure of working with this program and I must say, it was awesome. The customer service was great and they're consistant in every way possible. I would recommend Home Partners of America to my friends and family. My Exit Realty agent Victoria Archer was a saint and walked us through the process every step of the way. She was very patient and answered all of our questions keeeping the lines of communication open. Hands down a 10+
Mary Jane Smith
Home Partners of America is fast, efficient, and professional in their dealings with the real estate world. It's easy to work with them and have a flawless closing. I'd recommend using them any time you can as a realtor!
Helen Ianuari
Highly would recommend. Brooker, Mia Johnson was phenomenal. I was approved and found a new home within literally 2 wks. Our move in date is 09/18/19 and this is truly a Blessing for my family and I. We couldn't have asked for a better team to work with, in finding a home for my family. Home Partners of America ROCK!
Douglas Griffin
Honestly, the process could not have been any better or been more smooth. They are extremely quick to respond and their process is very efficient. The communication was very good. If your situation makes sense for this type of home lease / purchase, then you should absolutely consider HPA. They were really great to work with.
Zachary Fanshier
Overall a disappointing experience, but I honestly cannot blame home partners. We breezed through the approval process and finding houses was easy through the website. Unfortunately every house we decided on failed the inspection. It honestly makes me concerned about living in the Denver metro area because every single house failed for foundation problems. Eventually we decided that we were starting to settle for any house that we thought would pass inspection. Instead of doing that we ended the process and requested a refund. Other than not actually getting a home, the process was easy and everyone from home partners was courteous and respectful.
Troy Warrick
Recently was a listing agent for a Home Partners Buyer and the agent and Home Partners were very easy to work with and the transaction went smoothly. It's a great program for lease to own buyers and I definitely plan to work with them on both the buyer and seller side again.
TJ Earnshaw
I'm a Real Estate Broker /Owner. License in 3 states. KS, MO, & AZ. My favorite Buyers hands down are Home Partners. I've closed many houses with them. If I could have all my Buyers come from Home Partners. I would never work with any other Buyers. Best company I've ever work with.
Jenny Wilder
Our experience with Home Partners of America was excellent. The entire transaction was smooth and we were kept in the loop through every step of it. I would definitely recommend to anyone to use Home Partners.
Angela Dunbar
I would like to know if this program is offered to Louisiana residents.
Anne Sakrisson
My husband got a new job and so we were looking for a home while both of us working and living in different places we felt like we would never get a home. Our landlord gave a notice of sale on our rental I was living in, then I came upon a craigslist ad for a realistate agent that did lease to own with Home Partners. I called her asked her about what it was about, told my husband and within a month we had a place! It was very easy and we have recommended Home Partners to others that have been successful at getting into a home!
Cindy Lockhart
I have put several people in homes that would otherwise not be able to rent. Either due to having pet policies or not so perfect credit. I can't imagine why anyone does not like this program. It allows a seller to sell their home and the Tenant to live in the home that Home Partners actually buys.
If you understand the guidelines of the program it is fantastic. This will be up to your Realtor to explain it well. I thoroughly explain this program so my customers clearly know what to expect. If you have a home that is in serious need of repairs then this program will not work for you or if you want to get way more money than the appraiser can justify then this program isn't for you either.
. For the person who mentioned that they had a buyer who then HP later backed out, it was not due to her needing the lease agreement to show the school she was in the district. She doesn't even receive the official lease until the contract is completely finalized. She only receives a version of the lease that she will be committing herself to. Not the same. And not an official lease she can turn into her school district. Just saying.
Your home contract was cancelled because the home inspector that HP uses did not approve your home due to a significant amount of repairs or because the appraiser could not justify the comparable homes to what you were asking period. These two reasons are the only reasons I have ever encountered with HP backing out of a deal but this would occur with most buyers loking at an over priced home or one needing serious repairs.
HP wants a home that is well maintained not a problematic home as they will possibly be selling it later to the tenant living there. Keep in mind they are buying these homes sight unseen and relying only on us Realtors so of course they want the home to be in great shape. They are very picky about the homes they will actual buy and lease out to tenants.
I know what I am looking for in a home that I know HP will approve and like. Did it take me a couple of homes that got denied before I know what to look for? Sure but other than that they are short of amazing in my book.
Maxine E. Miller
I am excited to say that my transaction as a buyers agent with Home Partners Of America was absolutely smooth and there are several departments from start to finish that are consistantly engaged in the entire process. I am looking forward to many future transactions with HPOA! My renter/residence was equaly happy with the entire process as they are relocating to a new city and wanted to be in a specific community.
Mary Belden-McGrath
Home Partners of America was incredible in every way. From working with the realtor, to communication with Home Partners to the handoff of the property management team, every step of the way was seamless. They walk you through step by step the process, follow up with emails and videos along with phone calls. Very impressive! They are completely transparent.... no hidden costs or "surprises".
Wesley Harper
I am a licensed Realtor with 23 yrs of experience. I work with HP and close 3-5 per month with them. I have NOT had any issues and can tell you there is NO scam here. Talk to a licensed Realtor who has worked with HP. This is a great option for a lot of families needing to bridge the gap.
Angel Rodriguez
As a REALTOR®, I have helped several would-be buyers get into a home through Home Partners. I am totally in love with their business model. I highly recommend any potential buyer out there who is either worried about making the switch from renting to buying or who have had issues in their past that keeps them from getting approved for traditional financing. They make it easy and painless!
john crespo
We want to say thanks Greg L. for being the best agent that got all our papers done accurate and on time and through whole process / communicate with us every move! BEST 100% THANK YOU GREG L.
John-David Bennett
My wife and I are in process. Our move in date is a bit over a month away. This program was an answer for us. We live in Illinois and I have conciously chosen to sell our home and relocate to another state- Illinois is going down hard and fast- I do not want to own property when this state goes insolvent. My wife recently found a job she really loves, so moving out of state right now is not an option. Our plan is to rent for a couple years and see what happens to the state. Until that time, we wanted to rent. Our challenge is we have a 50 lb dog and most places will not allow pets, much less a medium sized dog. The places that did were disgusting and I was not going to put my wife in those houses. This program was our answer. We picked a beautifully renovated home that was within our desired rental range. They allow pets (there are breed, count and weight restrictions). You work with a professional company- not some guy trying to save every last dollar. So far this has been exactly what we needed. So the big point here is you do not have to be a someone that is struggling to purchase a home for this to be viable. You can also be someone who does not wish to own property but wants a nice house. The reality is there are not a lot of 300k+ landlords out there - and the few that are do not have the financial resources to do what this company can do.
Jennifer Oldham
As a listing agent, I'm always happy to receive offers from Home Partners. They offer a fair price and don't haggle on inspection items. Plus their quick-closing cash offers are gold to a home seller!
Joe Y
Excellent company to work with from beginning to end, also the staff and service are 5 stars. Home Partners of America gave me a second chance at being a home owner again, something that I have been dreaming about for a while. I will always be thankful to Home Partners and believe me if you need a chance at life again, this could be were to look first. Thank you.
Brian
My family and I were in a tight spot. We wanted to get into a house but could not qualify for a loan. Just by happenstance, we started looking into a "rent to own" home. Thats when we came accross Home Partners of America, on craigslist nonetheless. Gotta admit, it sounded to good to be true, however Home Partners agent (Marc) was awesome through out the whole process, (which can be lengthy) but the process only took us 1 month. Now we are moving in a awesome newer home with the option to buy. Trust Home Partners-they are legit! :')
Ronald Holt
Home Partners Of America is a great option for people in certain circumstances that do not allow them to purchase a home of their choosing immediately. They will purchase it for you and when you can purchase you can do so and not have to move. I listing and sold two properties through this company and they are fair and reasonable to work with in a timely manner. I suggest you check them out.
Jeff Kelly (Jeff Kelly, Realtor)
I was very skeptical of this company when the buyer's agent submitted an offer on my listing, so I reached out to a mastermind group of agents that I am a member of. Reviews were very favorable, and I have to say they were right! This was one of the smoothest transactions I've ever done. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to a listing client.
Kathleen Wells
As a recent widow, I did not think I could lease or purchase a nice home for my grandchildren and myself. Home Partners’ program made this possible. They were professional, supportive and super efficient. At every step along the way, everything was clearly spelled out in writing. We will always be grateful for this program and the people involved with it!
Tony Galarza
As an agent, I am always finding it hard to tell those wanting a chance to become homeowners that they are not able to qualify at this time. That's where home partners of america comes into play. They give those who want the American Dream the opportunity to experience what it is like to choose their own home and then purchase it from HPA when they are ready. I loved the experience with them and will recommend HPA to everyone!
Stanley “Phats” McClarin
My wife and I built our dream home from the ground up last year. Before closing I was denied the loan because of my credit. Having nothing else to lean on our Realtor told us about Home Partners. They were a lifesaver! We have been living in our dream home since April of last year. Now it is February 2016. I paid off majority of my debt and am in the process of purchasing. Everything has been preapproved on my end. I am just waiting for the response from Home Partners. I have emailed the appropriate contacts per my landlord at Pathlight and I have yet to receive a response from anyone from Home Partners. I attached the Approval from the lender and everything. My wife and I are trying to stay in good spirits but not hearing from anyone but a bit of negativity in ones thoughts. Can anyone help us? We just want to purchase this home and start our lives.
Clint Crawford
It's a great program for people who can't buy a house just yet, but with all of the rules and restrictions, it makes it hard to find a house that will fall into the criteria. Also, make sure the house you pick is in pristine condition. If not, the deal will most likely not go through. We found a way to make our deal work, but it was stressful at times.
Bruce Droge
I have helped 2 different buyers through this process. Home Partners process is involved but the outcome is worth it for people that cannot buy today but will be able in the future. I find their rent rates very reasonable for the property. I would recommend this service to anyone that is frustrated with renting and is on a path to homeownership. If you are in Kansas City, feel free to contact me for help with this program. Both buyers I assisted are very satisfied.
Valerie McNeal
I had a smooth transaction working with Home Partners who submitted an offer on one of my listings. I love how the company helps those who are preparing to be homebuyers and stand behind their purpose. Would love to work with them again.

I'm a Realtor down here in Florida, HP is a great company, The system works for Transferring Executives and folks having their NEW home built for a year. I've done over 11 deals with them.
All my people are happy.. Yes the lease/buy docs are alittle long, but you the tenant finally get to call the shots for up to 5 years. Its comforting knowing you are in the home for up to 5 years.

I️ cannot believe how easy it was to get approve, find the house of our dreams and move in within 45 days! We would recommend this method to anyone who may need to just adjust a few things on their credit but able to buy the house you want now! I️ am not paid and this is a real family
Lena Matariyeh
I recently closed a deal with HPA and was satisfied with their communication and quick turn around. They have specific guidelines and requirements that they make clear with the initial offer to avoid any confusion or surprises. My seller was happy to sell her home as a cash deal and be done within 30 days of listing.
Juan Gonzalez
Home Partners of America was AWESOME!!! They help me with everything, they got me THE HOUSE I WANTED :) , a beautiful home. Thank you so much for all you did, my family is happy and back together again:), a new beginning, that's what Home Partners of America gave me THANK YOU:)
Eric Timmons
Home Partners was the Buyer for one of my listings. They were very responsive to all schedules and made the process simple and straight forward. We closed on time with no issues.
British Hill
Not sure what people mean here when they are calling Home Partners crooks...in what way?? We used their program earlier this year in 2015 to get into our dream home. If it wasn't for Home Partners of America's program, my husband and I would still be renting an apartment or renting a home that someone else wanted us to rent, NOT the home we actually picked out to rent and eventually buy.
I found the program and the people to be very much on the up and up, everything is spelled out in detailed and all legally stated...very clearly. Like anything else, you must make sure the details fit you and your needs. I worked with a Realtor and she worked with Home Partners on my behalf...which I recommend. We went out, looked for the home within the qualifications, our agent presented that home as the one we wanted to rent and eventually buy....it fit their requirements...and they bought the house! We moved in with the agreed up 1st month rent, last month and security dep....and we can't be happier!!! We recently purchased the home from them within our 1st year. I highly recommend this program to those that can afford to pay the rent in a home they want and would like to purchase it within a year of renting...with no surprises. READ the fine print, understand the program and work with a Realtor to get it all done. The program is designed for families that would like to own in A+ school district communities and can afford it...even while renting. It's designed to help those families get into the home they desire and eventually purchase once they can qualify for a mortgage. It's best suited for previous home owners who may have had hard times after the economy crash a few years back and are trying to raise their credit scores again, save money for downpayment, etc. BOTTOM LINE: EXCELLENT PROGRAM FOR THOSE GETTING BACK ON THEIR FEET AND WANT A BEAUTIFUL HOME TO RENT THAT THEY WOULD WANT TO BUY AND CAN AFFORD. Thank God for programs that can make the difference for those that are in need of it.
Michael Middleton
Me and my wife were new to the Atlanta, GA area. Getting intona home we liked would have been almost impossible with out the backing of homepartners. Their home portal does need some work but managed to use it in combination with Zillow to get the job done. The associates are kind and helpful.
Dagma E LeBlanc PA, REALTOR (#DagmaSellsRealEstate)
Great experience, excellent communication. Closing date was quick and entire staff was extremely effeicient.
Jay Rodriguez
The experience overall was good. Just need to have all the documents in order as what this company request is a bit excessive and added expenses to the seller kind of add up but overall they do offer a fair market price for the homes they purchase.
D Zamora
I love this program! I just wish we could continue with the situation of having to be relocated due to our job moving us. This program is a 1 time hit.
Jonathan Doro
Home Partners was easy to work with, and provided a great alternative to buying for my client. He is very happy with everything Home Partners has done, however there was some unneeded stress during the transition from Home Partners to Pathlight Property Management.
Eltah Brinson
When purchasing a home for my clients through Homepartners, the process was fast, easy, and seamless. There was always a real person to talk to and timelines were not only met, but exceeded, even when things had to be rushed. I was very pleased with the process.
Brian Hannigan
Utilized Home Partners of America (then Hyperion) just under a year ago and was very happy with the process and everything since then. I've owned a few homes over the past 22 year and after a messy & expensive divorce was unable to obtain a mortgage. This program was exactly what I needed to get back in a nice home for my family.
Lisa Walker
From the beginning of the process to the end they exceeded my expectations. The customer service was excellent. I love the fact that I was able to choose from so many different homes and not just settle for anything. The program allowed me and my family to purchase a home that we love. Thank you for the experience.
Jennifer DeCesari
We recently closed on a home with HPA and found the process easy and fast. Our market is very fast moving and I found them quick and responsive even on the weekends. The only issues we had, with the 5 houes, we attepted to buy was that one of them was denied by HPA because its a relocation and they don't work with that relocation company - it would have been nice to have that transparency up front. The only other issue was around the refridgerator we were going to have to buy - HPA wouldn't put in a french door fridge (which is what would have been in the house as its only 3 years old) and were going to charge us $1500 for the fridge but would put in one valued at $800. This resulted in us having to buy a fridge ourselves (cause I didn't want to pay $1500 for something only worth $800! That's throwing money away!) which was $1400 that we didn't have budgeted.
David DiGioia
HPA was great to work with. As a Buyers Agent for them the process was very smooth, they were easy to communicate with, quickly to respond, they have a good system in place to track the transaction from beginning to end and were extremely efficient. I would highly recommended their services!
Gwendolyn Kennedy
We are retired military and had a home to sell. The rental properties in the area where we were looking were over priced and inadequate for our large family. Home Partners came in and purchased the home of our choice for us. We will be able to buy our dream home within the year. They were curteous, professional, and great to work with. The home was clean and ready for our arrival. It was nothing short of a blessing for our family.
Tamee Starr
As a Georgia realtor who markets the HomePartners program and a resident in a HomePartners property, I have been very pleased with the level of service provided by the Pathlight Maintenance Team, particularly the Atlanta Project Manager, Alvin Hunt. When it comes to my clients preparing for move-in, Alvin is always responsive to my calls and makes sure any issues are handled expeditiously. If I've ever had an issue with my own home, which I've been living in for a year now, Alvin goes above and beyond to assist me with that as well. I give the Atlanta Pathlight Team two thumbs up! Keep up the good work!
Jermaine Hendricks
It's a great program. 2 things, do your research before paying the $75 application fee the guidelines are available before you pay. Also, work with a realtor who has experience with them or can read, because a proactive Realtor will call and find out information to make sure it's right for you!
Courtney Brophy
I am one happy 'almost' home owner here in Downingtown PA. When our moving plans got unexpectedly accelerated, Home Partners was truly an answered prayer. Our landlord opted to not renew our lease for their own reasons, and were suddenly with no place to live in just a few short months. The team at HPA was kind and persistent and consistent... and we truly got to spend the journey excited about moving into our dream home rather than stressed about it! For us, because of the timing of starting my business and time I took off when my daughter was born, qualifying for a mortgage was still a few years away- but HPA allowed us to choose our dream home and move in now- rather than moving twice. I can't thank HPA enough for helping my family to move into our dream home- years before we thought it was possible! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
NM S.
The process went smoothly, from start to finish. We received an accepted offer on 4/2/2019 and closed without any issues on 4/25/2019. Home Partners of America's representatives were professional, thorough and always responded quickly.
Seay Phillips
Home Partners was the best option for my customers by far. I found the home my customers loved and Home Partners quickly purchased with zero hiccups. I highly recommend HPA to anyone who is looking to buy but may need a little time or assistance!
Stephanie S.
Home Partners were very pleasant to work with, Agent Robert Nichols in particular. They've helped us with getting into a house of our choosing, and it involved very little stress. However, whenever we had a question that needed to be answered, it could be days before we heard back. THAT is if we didn't have to remind them, and at no fault of the agent. We've already recommend this program to friends and family, who were waiting to see how things turned out for us. Thank you Bobby Nichols and Home Partners!
monkachick
I couldn't buy a house for a few years because of a short sale. Used these guys, got the house, test drove the house for a year and then purchased it before the year was up. Paid more than market value for rent that year but it was so nice to test out the house first, and locked in a good buy price. Only complaint was that communication around the buying process was super frustrating but it was all worth it in the end.
Geoffrey Henry
I've had several opportunities to work with HPoA in the last 5 years. I've always found their processes to be smooth and they bring a great value to both Buyers and Sellers. Typically, they are competitive with their offers to the Sellers, the Buyers receive the helping hand they need to get into home ownership and the freedom to become a "cash" buyer. The only thing I would change is the Title Company that they choose to work with. Other than that, always a pleasure to work with HPoA.
Suzanne Snell
This was my first, and hopefully, not my last experience with Home Partners. I was concerned at first because I wasn't sure what I was doing with their extras needed, (which isn't too time consuming) but the communication is exceptional! They are there to answer questions and were very fast. Definitely a great experience!
ikram rashid
Very professional and pleasant. Helps to get a person going in the right direction and loving it
shaun nichols
I just completed my first transaction with HPA and will have many more to come. They did a great job at responding to all inquires and were able to assist my client in finding the right home.
chiniqua Carter
Very pleased with HP and the overall process. This could not have been more smooth. They were great with communication and kept you abreast at all times. I would definitely recommend this program to anyone. They offered a fair price for the property and we got it! My family and I are scheduled to move in tomorrow!
James Lozier
Excellent experience with our home purchase! We had an amazing realtor and with the assistance of this amazing program we were able to move quickly in a very fast paced market! Thanks for helping make our home purchase a reality along with a speedy process!
Oleseia Payne
During my long search of finding a Rent-to Own home, I stumbled upon an agent who connected me with Home Partners of America. They gave me the opportunity to have the option of having my own home. They did a fantastic job. Thanks again Home Partners of America.
Melissa Thomas
Don't be afraid -- this is no scam. Home Partners is such a great program to help people like me who needs just a little more time to get ready for financing. They are prompt, professional and personable. I am so glad that I found them.
Christa Hazlett
I stumbled onto Home Partners and I'm so glad I did. The process has been so easy, my realtor Suzanne was fantastic and I've been recommending Home Partners of America to everyone! Thank you for the opportunity to own my own home.
Maria Herr
Its a great program but BEWARE of their property management team PATHLIGHT! Ive sent complaints into Home Partners already with no response but they are such a good program to be having garbage property management team oversee the properties that we have to deal with after the fact. They do bare minimum and you can NEVER speak to them when you call, its ridiculous. The headaches of Pathlight not worth the Home Partners program.
Joshua Savage
Im so happy i decided to partner with HPoA. Im a Agent and so far out of all the 40+ transactions i have closed in my 2 years of being a realtor, this 1st deal ive done with HP has been the smoothest. If you do your part and really focus on finding a great home with great comps in a great area, you will succeed
Kevin Thompson
HPA was very thorough and efficient during this process. They saved me by making sure that the seller replaced mold on the roof boards instead of allowing them to just treat the area. Process was simple from start to finish.
Gloria Walters
My first transaction with this company went surprisingly smooth. I wasn't sure what to expect. I for some reason there would be a major hiccup somewhere along the lines. But none occurred. They were responsive and answered all of my questions and concerns navigating their process. We closed successfully and my customers are moving in within two weeks. They are elated.
Luke K. Leary
My name is Luke Leary, with Brokers Guild - Cherry Creek Ltd, and I would give 100 stars if I could!. I am an HPA (Home Partners of America) Certified Realtor® in Colorado. This company is simply incredible. I have had the pleasure of helping many residents/families move into wonderful homes with the HPA Lease with Right to Purchase program. They are ethical, upfront, transparent, and professional. Integrity every step of the way. I also know, from personal experience, how hard the HPA team works to do the very best they can for residents. I could share many individual cases of the HPA Team going above and beyond to help residents. HPA takes great pride in their work and they work tirelessly to accomplish their goal of getting good people into good homes. I give my absolute highest recommendation of Home Partners of America!

Home partners is a great corporation who cares about people. Currently in the home rent/purchase process and it's going well so far. Everyone is very courteous and polite and friendly.

Excellent Service, Outstanding Realtor, Fast approval process 👌 …

Application process is slow as hell. Stressful. As soon as you are approved all of a sudden they wanna pay attention. Figures. Also beware don't get to attached to a home. Chances are it's gone before you can even finish the email

Home Partners was a great option for my relocation clients! The deal was done quickly and efficiently and my clients will be in their new home by the end of the month. I will definitely recommend Home Partners to other clients! @Robin412Realtor

REALLY GREAT PROGRAM FOR THOSE THAT WANT TO BUY A HOME BUT ARE NOT COMPLETELY READY. THEY ANSWERED ALL QUESTIONS I HAD. AND WERE PRETTY STRAIGHT FORWARD.

Hands down the best lease purchase company. I'm a realtor and I can attest this is the best option next to purchasing. If your in the Atlanta area then send me an email and I'll explain it all to you! [email protected]
Brandon Cone
Overall, the experience was good for my sellers. As always, there are challenges that come with working with a large corporation. Then again, there are some benefits too. We made it to the closing table with relative ease and I’d be happy to see another offer from them in the future.
Dawn Till Dusky Realty Pasowicz
We did close, but the title company Home Partners insisted on using was horrible. Communication, lack of knowledge and dis organization was very frustrating.

As a real estate agent, it's great to give my clients additional lease options that otherwise would not exist! It works well for my relocation clients, those whose credit is not quite ready and for several other life scenarios.

Great opportunity to work on credit and be in your home at the same time! The folks at Home Partners care about the Customer Service piece of the business. This is evident in response turn around time! Thanx Alex and others who helped get myself and family into a home!
Step by step instruction and knowledge of what's come......easy breezy, in your home in no time!

Great program with renters not ready to buy yet. I live in an area where there are people moving into from all over the country. If you are not sure where you want to land, or if you are not quite ready to buy this is a great program.
They are very organized and make the process easy for everyone.

I was treated very professionally and all timelines were met. This is a great way to enter the housing market if you don't have enough for a down payment or you want to rent a Home to 'try it on' before buying.

Home Partners of America is a WONDERFUL company giving hopeful home buyers the opportunity to get into the home of their dreams by buying the home and leasing it to you. This is a great opportunity for those (like us) who were forced into a short sale or forclosure situation and now not able to apply for a home loan. As in our situation, we will buy our home from HPA as soon as we can qualify for a new mortgage! The people we have dealt with at HPA were so pleasant, knowledgeable, and efficient. They made our dreams come true!!! We will always be grateful. 5 Stars for HPA!

It was fast. They purchased and leased our future home to us in 30 days. The house is beautiful and we love our new home.

I have done about 30 transactions with Home Partners and love working with them. This is truly a win-win-win for everyone involved. If you haven't looked into Home Partners, you need to! They truly do what they say they will do!

Home Partners have been amazing, the program is wonderful for people who need that extra bit of help. Along with the real estate agents at the Kittle Team I am thrilled. Very courteous and extremely detail oriented. BJ Candella was my agent and I highly recommend him and the entire team at Kittle. 5 Stars!
Wonderful all the way around!

Smooth and easy process. Provides individuals a lot more flexibility than a typical rents. My biggest hurdle is getting my clients past the higher rent than a typical rental but once I do that

Great alternative program for those looking to buy and having a way out in 12 months or less. I ensure that with the clients that I refer to Home Partners. We provide a step by step plan so that they are not stuck being a renter👍🏽 …

Homepartners is a great programn Especially If you can't get into a mortgage. The complaints on here are false for most part. Lot of it is just cry babies. The info they ask for is a fraction of what you have to turn in on a home loan. FYI people if you could get a regular loan you wouldn't have to go through a program that chargers more. So stop your crying pay your bills and don't complain about people trying to help you.

I was the Listing Agent for a Property that they purchased to lease to people that will eventually own the home. Home Partners was very fair to negotiate with, and very quick to the Closing table....hope to do business with them again.

Very smooth and fast transaction from start to close took only 3 weeks. HPA is a strong cash buyer
