The loyal customer base that had rented appliances, furniture, and electronics from me was just as eager to rent clean late model used cars.

The Southeast Auto Rental Dealers Association (SEADRA), the largest and fastest growing Automobile rent to own system in the country, said 2006 was a "banner growth year." SEADRA said 2006 rent to own auto sales improved over 60%. SEADRA offers a proven model for automobile rent to own business'.

Fred Pearson, owner of Payless Furniture and Appliance and one of the Rent to Own industry's most respected members, says, "As Payless Furniture and Appliance, I’ve been renting home furnishings for fifteen years. In early 2000, I began to consider rent to own automobiles. I called SEADRA and they gave me the professional advice and tools I needed to make it happen."

In December 2001, Payless Auto started renting to own cars. "I was amazed," said Pearson. "The loyal customer base that had rented appliances, furniture, and electronics from me was just as eager to rent clean late model used cars."

Pearson concluded, "Four car lots later, I am extremely pleased to be renting another product my customers love. This is an exciting and profitable opportunity for any RTO dealer looking to expand business and leverage a loyal customer base."
