The Rental Contract With Option To Buy is a specialized agreement used in Belgian property transactions where parties wish to combine a rental period with a future purchase opportunity. This document is particularly relevant when tenants need time to arrange financing or want to "test" the property before committing to purchase, or when owners prefer a gradual sale process. It must comply with Belgian federal and regional property laws, including the Civil Code, residential lease legislation, and property transfer regulations. The agreement is commonly used in both residential and commercial contexts, requiring careful attention to jurisdiction-specific requirements for both rental and sale components. The document typically includes detailed provisions for rental terms, purchase price calculations, option exercise procedures, and property maintenance obligations, often with a portion of rental payments being credited toward the eventual purchase price.
