Rent to Own Homes in Wabana — Your Mortgage Alternative — No Credit Check to Start, As Little As 2% Down
Plenty of Wabana households earn more than enough to own but still get turned away at the branch over a thin credit file or a down payment they haven't finished saving. That gap is exactly what rent to own in Wabana closes. No credit check to begin, bad credit welcome, and no bank qualifying required to start.
It works like this — find the Wabana home you want, we help you secure it at a purchase price fixed up front, and you buy when you qualify. As you live there, you build both the credit and the down payment (from just 2% to start) a bank looks for.
We help Wabana buyers who are:
- Buyers with bad credit, no credit, or a past bankruptcy or consumer proposal behind them
- Newcomers to Canada building a credit history while they get established in Wabana
- Newfoundland and Labrador households the bank turns down over a thin credit file or an unsaved down payment
- The self-employed, newcomers building credit, seasonal and variable-income earners, and first-time buyers
- Renters in Wabana who can carry a monthly payment and are ready to be buyers, not tenants
- The self-employed, contract and gig workers in Wabana whose income is real but hard to document
In Wabana, rent to own is a route to owning a home when a traditional mortgage isn’t an option yet. You live in the home now, a portion of each payment grows your down payment, and you buy at a purchase price set up front — even with bad credit and no bank approval to start.

A mortgage alternative when the bank says no
Approval desks rarely understand island files; we do. Wabana buyers move in under a purchase contract and arrange financing once the term has done its work.
Built for Newfoundland and Labrador incomes
Ferry commutes, island trades, and seasonal work shape Bell Island budgets. Wabana payment plans start from those facts, not from a template.
You buy — you don't just rent
You live in the Wabana property as its contracted buyer, holding a written option to purchase. Every payment nudges the sale toward completion.
Bad credit and no credit welcome
Damaged credit from mainland years does not disqualify an islander. Wabana approvals rest on steadiness, income, and commitment to close.
Move in fast, own where you want
Weeks after approval you can be crossing the tickle to your own Wabana address, with qualification proceeding during the term.
Every property type, every area
Miners' cottages, family bungalows, and view properties along the cliffs all qualify. Wabana housing stock is varied and the structure absorbs it.
Rent to Own Homes in Wabana — Communities We Serve
Wabana crowns Bell Island in the middle of Conception Bay, a short ferry ride from Portugal Cove and a world apart once you land. Rent to own suits Wabana's pace, letting buyers move into an island home now and complete the purchase over the coming years.
Around 2% down opens the agreement, and the purchase figure stands agreed from day one. For Wabana households commuting by ferry or working on the island, the program turns affordable monthly payments into steady, recorded progress toward a deed.
On Bell Island
Across the water
Island prices, mainland-style structure
A Wabana agreement pairs immediate occupancy with a written option to purchase, and defined monthly credits accumulate against your closing while the ferry carries you to work and back each day.
Bell Island affordability keeps the numbers gentle: modest monthly payments, real purchase credits, and a price fixed at signing waiting at the end of a two to four year term.
Looking just beyond town? We also arrange rent to own in the Newfoundland and Labrador communities around Wabana — Portugal Cove-St. Philips, St. Johns, Paradise— so the right home and a workable commute both fit.
