A Utah rent-to-own lease agreement is a normal lease agreement that also contains the option for the tenant to buy the property. It encompasses the normal elements of a lease agreement, including but not limited to the monthly rent, security and pet deposits, and tenant responsibilities. Next, the option to buy the property explains the requirements, purchase price, and arrangements settled by the landlord and tenant. The tenant will pay monthly rent until they inform the landlord that they are ready to buy the property. Depending on the actual deal, the rent paid can apply to the purchase price. The landlord needs to issue certain disclosures per Utah law.
