Rent To Own Homes Buyer Testimonials
Sonya Alderman (Buyer)
Rick Gilliam (Buyer)
“In 2007 I was transferred from the Tampa Bay area to Atlanta. This was right when the bottom was falling out of the housing market. We had a horrible time selling our home in Florida so we signed a 2-year lease for a house in Marietta so I could keep my job. At least we had that going for us. The longer we leased the house, the more and more I became irritated with our situation. We lost all of the equity we had built-in Florida and were paying so much in rent that it would be another 10 years before we could save the money we needed for a traditional 20% down payment to buy our own home in the area that we wanted to be in. All the time paying for someone else’s house with our monthly rent payments. I started looking for other alternatives to purchase a home. I came across the Finance The Dream website in February of 2010 and it was an absolute blessing. Finance The Dream connected me with Vincent Polisi. I started e-mailing Vincent because I had a lot of questions about the lease purchase program offered by Finance The Dream. It just seemed too good to be true. It was everything we were looking for and needed as a family. I started working with Vincent more closely and we targeted the school district we wanted to be in for a move during the summer while the kids were out of school. Vincent made everything so easy. We had purchased two homes through the traditional realtor process and this was by far the best experience. Through Finance The Dream we were able to find a house in the area we wanted to be in, in the price range we were looking for and we closed the deal about a month before the school year started. Everything worked out just as we had planned. I can’t thank Vincent enough. He was able to make something that I thought was going to take us years to accomplish in just a few months. We can’t thank Vincent and Finance The Dream enough for making our goal to become home owners again happen. Please feel free to contact me using the information below.”

Mel Farr, Jr. (Buyer)
My name is Mel Farr Jr. I am a former NCAA running back for the UCLA Bruins, former NFL player for the Los Angeles Rams, entrepreneur, car dealership owner, and very satisfied client of Vincent Polisi & FinanceTheDream.com.

Last December (2008), they helped me get into a $1.2 Million dollar new construction home in East Cobb (Marietta, GA). I went through their Platinum Level Custom HomeFinder Service. Start to finish it took about two weeks and this includes locating a home that matched my exact description. I worked one on one with Vincent Polisi. He stayed in close contact throughout the process and I was very pleased with his services. He even pushed hard for the builder to complete the home so my family could move in on Christmas Eve.
Vincent Polisi runs his business virtually and was not in Atlanta while my deal was being completed (he was with his wife and sons in Orlando at Disney World).
As such, I had to go against the grain of everything you are told not to do and take a step in faith. I would be lying if I told you that I wasn’t extremely nervous when I signed the contract and had to send the initial wire of $15,000 to someone I had never met who at the time was in another state. After sending the wire, I joked that I was waiting for Ashton Kutcher to jump out and tell me I’d been Punk’d.
What happened next amazed me and was a true testament to the services provided by Vincent Polisi and FinanceTheDream.com. I went out to the property and there was an army of workers present finalizing the trim, staining the hardwood floors, working on the punch list items and landscaping. After that, all concern vanished. I will never forget Vincent Polisi telling me that he was going to move heaven and earth to get me into the home before Christmas. When I signed the contract, the property wasn’t finished and no Certificate of Occupancy had been issued by Cobb County. True to his word, I took occupancy Christmas Eve and was able to wake up Christmas morning in my new home.
It is rare in today’s socioeconomic climate that you find great service. What’s even rarer is to find a person or company that actually does what they say they are going to do. Vincent Polisi and FinanceTheDream.com provide excellent service and do exactly what they say they will do. They helped me get into a rent to own house!
If you email me directly, I will be happy to speak with you about my experience. You can email me at melvin@whyudream.com. . Alternatively, you can call me at my office at: 404.997.3277.

Sarah Jimmerson (Buyer)
Hi all, my name is Sarah Jimmerson. Contact # (404) 308-8527. I work for the City of Atlanta Department of Aviation at HJAI airport in Atlanta GA. I am currently a very satisfied customer of FinanceTheDream.com. I was allowed to do a lease purchase on a new construction bank owned home using their Platinum Level Custom HomeFinder Service in less than 2 weeks after describing the home I wanted.
As it states on their website, the money I paid for the Platinum Level Custom HomeFinder Service was, in fact, applied and credited to my total required funds at contract execution.
I currently reside at 118 Mariah’s Walk in Hampton GA. If you have any questions or comments I would be happy to answer any questions you have. I know it may sound too good to be true but it is true. I am a living testament that everything that I was promised actually happened.
My email address is ruthsarah2000@yahoo.com and sarah.jimmerson@atlanta-airport.com if you want to send me an email or ask questions through that medium.
Michael T. Janssen (Buyer)
My name is Mike Janssen. I am 35 years old and I have been renting my whole adult life. Over the years I made a mess of my credit. For the last 3 years I have been renting from the same person. I recently moved into one of his larger houses (I am a family of six), and no sooner did I do that when I received a letter in the mail that the bank was foreclosing on the house. I was scared. It turns out that by law the bank must honor the lease, but a company called Bravo Group purchased the home. They did not like my lease and wanted me to sign one of theirs, so they did nothing but bully me and threaten my family with eviction.That is when I started to look around and came across Vincent’s add on Craigslist. I had never thought about buying a home with owner financing because of my credit and thought I could never qualify for a loan through a bank. Vincent taught me all kinds of things that I did not know. Not only was Vincent the most knowledgeable and down-to-earth person I have ever dealt with, he found my family a great home and had us in it in less than a week. I even qualified for the $8,000 tax rebate. It was fast and easy. I now own my own home, am repairing my credit, and have 8 grand on the way. The best part is I am no longer at the mercy of rental companies. The bottom line is this is the real deal. It has given my family and I a much needed second chance. Working with Vincent and his company is the best decision I have made in a long time. Please feel free to contact me via email or phone. I will be happy to share my experience with you….Michael T.

Carman Cook (Buyer)
Thank you Vincent and Wendy Polisi for helping me and my three children do what I thought would be impossible for a long time, which was being on my way to owning a beautiful new home again. I have a great job but, just went through a divorce and my credit is not pretty, matter of fact it is really ugly. We had to lease a two bedroom apartment for a year and it just disheartens me to throw my money away in rent after I owned a home before. Especially with the market today I felt like I would never be able to own a home again. I started to give up and just rent again until I found their website Finance the Dream/ The Wealth Consortium. It was so fast, easy, with no hoops to jump through. I went the next day to look at the brand new construction homes and chose the one I liked ( 4 bed/2.5 ba in a cul-de-sac, the children have their own rooms now). All I was required to do was sign the lease/option agreement electronically online. The next day Vincent met me at the home and we exchanged a check for the keys. It was just that easy! Now I am on the path to owning a brand new home in a year or two with a minimal amount of time and money.
Sincerely,
Carman Cook
