Compare stores side by side
Check the store listing above for ratings, products offered, and contact details before making your visit.
Ask about early purchase options
Every rent-to-own agreement should include an early purchase option (EPO). Ask the store how much you can save by buying the item outright before the full lease term ends. The earlier you buy, the more you save.
Check store hours before you go
Hours can vary by location and may change on holidays. Call ahead or check the store listings above to confirm the store is open before making the trip. Many stores close earlier on weekends.

Estimate your total cost
Use the VRTO calculator to estimate your total rent-to-own cost before you visit. Knowing the full cost upfront helps you compare options and budget effectively.
Know your rights
Rent-to-own is generally structured as a lease with an option to own. Return rights and obligations vary by agreement and state. Iowa has consumer protection laws governing RTO transactions. Ask the store for a copy of your agreement before signing.
What Iowa law gives you before you sign
Iowa regulates rent-to-own under Iowa Rental-Purchase Agreement Act, and the rules are the same at every store in the state. Before you sign, the store has to put the cash price, the total cost to own the item, and the number of payments in front of you, so the real number is never buried in the fine print. Rent-to-own is a lease and not a loan, so there is no interest rate, and returning the item does not go on your credit.
This is a plain summary, not legal advice. Read your own agreement and confirm the terms with the store.
