The Rent To Buy Agreement is a specialized legal instrument used in Denmark when parties wish to combine a rental arrangement with a future property purchase. This document is particularly useful for buyers who need time to arrange financing or build up equity through rental payments, or for sellers seeking a committed buyer while generating rental income. The agreement must comply with Danish property law, including the Danish Rent Act (Lejeloven) and Purchase Agreement Act (Købeloven). It typically includes detailed provisions about rental terms, purchase price calculations, rent credits, maintenance obligations, and the process for exercising the purchase option.
