Rent From Lime

Rental homes built and managed by the people who built them.

From single-family homes to townhomes and apartments, every Lime rental is owned, maintained, and managed in-house — by neighbors, in Northeast Ohio.

Rent a brand-new home

Move into a home no one has ever lived in.

Most of our rentals aren't tired turnovers — they're brand-new homes we just finished building. That means modern floor plans, durable finishes, energy-efficient systems, and appliances still under warranty. You get the feel of a custom home without the price tag of buying one.

Because Lime designs, builds, owns, and manages every property, the home you tour is the home you move into. No deferred maintenance, no surprise repairs, no absentee landlord. Just a clean, efficient, brand-new place to call home — backed by the same crew that built it.

  • Brand-new construction

  • Energy-efficient — lower bills

  • Builder-backed quality

Lease to Purchase

A real path from renter to homeowner.

Less-than-perfect credit shouldn't close the door on owning a home. Our Lease to Purchase program gives qualified tenants time to build credit, save for a down payment, and lock in the home they're already living in.

Here's how it works: you move into a Lime home as a tenant under a standard lease, with an agreed purchase price and a defined window — typically 12 to 36 months — to exercise your option to buy. A portion of each monthly rent payment is set aside as credit toward your future down payment, so every month you live in the home, you're moving closer to owning it.

During the lease term, we work alongside you and our local lending partners to get you mortgage-ready: building rent and payment history, improving credit scores, paying down debt, and stabilizing income. When you're ready, you exercise your option, your accumulated rent credits and option fee apply at closing, and the keys to the home you already love are officially yours.

Lock in your home

Live in it now, own it later — at a price agreed to up front.

Build credit on purpose

Rent that builds equity
