When faced with the dilemma of needing extra space, many people automatically think of renting a storage unit. However, there’s an alternative that’s not only more convenient but can also be a better investment in the long run: rent to own. Here’s why renting to own a shed is a smarter choice than opting for a traditional storage unit.
1. Long Term Investment. Renting a storage unit may be an easy short-term alternative but in the long term, you have nothing to show for your money. With a rent to own shed from Hometown Sheds, your monthly payment *does* go towards ownership. When you’ve finished your payments, the shed will be yours for many years to come.
2. Convenience. When you need storage, those Christmas decorations, summer clothes, or yard equipment, the last thing you want to do is drive across town with your truck and load up boxes full of items to bring back home. Your own storage shed allows you to simply step outside of your own back door and have access to shelving, pegboard to hand your tools and even a ramp to pull the mower right in. Save yourself time and energy by owning your own shed!
3. Customization. When you rent a storage unit, what you see is what you get. However, at Hometown Sheds we want to work with you to customize your shed to truly fit your needs. Whether you have an HOA with strict guidelines, want a certain color or style, or even a porch or accent windows added to your shed, we can bring your dreams to life. That’s because the sheds from Hometown are created in our own locally operated factory right in Danville, VA.
4. Enhance Property Value. Just like owning your home is an investment, owning your shed adds value to your property, too. Unlike renting a storage unit, when it’s time to move or sell, your shed is an added value to your overall real estate portfolio and can often be used as a selling point.
5. Multi-Use Options. You can’t turn your storage rental into a man cave to watch the big games, a home gym, home office, or even hobby space. Storage units are solely for storage. They’re not designed for any other use, limiting their functionality.
Stop throwing your rent away month after month with nothing to show for it. At Hometown Sheds you’ll be pleasantly surprised that for the cost to rent a unit, you can often own your customized shed right in your backyard.
