Rent-to-Own

The rent-to-own (RTO) industry, also known as the rental-purchase industry, encompasses businesses that rent durable consumer goods, including electronics, furniture, appliances, wheels and tires, jewelry, and more.  Customers make weekly or monthly payments with no obligation to complete the full schedule of payments; they may return the item at any time.  If all payments are made (or via an early-purchase option), the customer acquires ownership.

Rivero, Gordimer & Company, P.A. (RGCO) works with numerous franchisors, franchisees, and small- to larger-sized independents representing hundreds of storefronts. With nearly 20 years in this space, we understand the unique needs of the rent-to-own industry—from start-ups and financing to industry-specific tax and accounting rules, as well as succession, mergers, sales, and valuations.

Staying current on industry developments allows us to advise on tax and accounting solutions, business valuations, mergers and acquisitions, and ongoing business consulting. We are proud to be an associate member of the Association of Progressive Rental Organizations (APRO), an approved vendor for The Rental Industry Buying Group (TRIB), and a vendor member of the Florida Rental Dealers Association (FRDA).

Proud APRO Member

After nearly 20 years of partnerships, RGCO is truly dedicated to this industry. Here’s what our clients have said:

“As an independent, we didn’t know what our former CPA didn’t know about our industry. The transition was painless and has been less expensive than we thought.”
