Frequently Asked Questions
Do I make my payments at Sears Hometown & Outlet Stores?
No. Payments are auto-deducted from the account that you listed as preferred on your application. Payments will process on the dates listed on your lease payment schedule.
What is the Early Purchase Option?
Where available, the Early Purchase Option provides you with the opportunity to purchase your leased items early. Customers can look to purchase their leased items within 30, 60 or 90 days from origination of your lease. NOTE: EPO not available in NJ, VT, WI or WV.
What are the costs associated with the Early Purchase Options?
Early purchase options of 30, 60 or 90 days are available in all states except NJ, VT, WI and WV. Before 30 days = 5% over cash price | Between 31-60 days = 8% over cash price | Between 61-90 days = 10% over cash price.
How soon can I exercise the purchase option?
The Lease It program will allow you to purchase your leased items anytime within the first 90 days from the origination of your lease agreement.
