Home Partners of America is a real estate company founded in 2012 that provides an alternative path to homeownership through its lease-purchase program. The company purchases homes on behalf of qualified applicants who can then lease the property with the right to purchase it in the future. Operating across multiple U.S. markets, Home Partners of America aims to serve individuals and families who may not be immediately ready for traditional home purchasing. The company’s business model involves acquiring single-family homes in desirable neighborhoods and communities, which are then made available to approved residents through their Lease Purchase Program. Residents can rent the home for up to five years in most markets, with a predetermined purchase price for each year of their lease term. This allows residents to live in their preferred home while having time to prepare for eventual homeownership. In 2021, Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust acquired Home Partners of America in a transaction valued at $6 billion. The company has purchased thousands of homes across the United States and has served numerous families through its program. Home Partners of America maintains partnerships with real estate agents and brokers nationwide to facilitate their home acquisition process and program offerings.
