From Renter to Owner: How Withco Helps Small Business Owners Buy Their Buildings

If you run a small business, you’ve probably heard this advice:
“Own your space before your rent goes up — or your landlord sells.”

But buying commercial property?
It’s expensive. Complicated. And for many entrepreneurs, totally out of reach.

That’s exactly why Withco exists — to help small business owners go from renters to owners, one lease at a time.

Real Story: How Aisha Went From Leasing Her Bakery to Owning It

Aisha started a boutique bakery in Atlanta. Her shop was thriving, but every lease renewal came with anxiety — what if the rent spiked? Or the building was sold?

Withco reached out with a solution:

  • A Lease-to-Own structure

  • Locked-in monthly payments

  • Ownership goal within 5 years

  • Full support from day one

Today, Aisha isn’t just running a business — she owns the building. No more fear of losing her space. Just peace of mind, equity, and long-term growth.

“Withco helped me go from surviving to scaling. I own the space I built my dream in,” she said.
