Do you have domains you would rent-to-own?

Doesn't previous use of a domain name by an unscrupulous actor lower the value of a domain name? If so, I would be weary of renting out a domain name without understanding how it would be used.

I've been building a domain marketplace at https://xn--i-7iq.ws/marketplace and from my research, at least on the higher end, financing and leasing plans are somewhat common for the bigger transactions.

Basically no.

When I'm looking for a domain I often see people squatting on a domain I would like. I would consider buying the domain at a premium, but renting, no way. If my product or service is successful they will always have a hold over me.

I have a lot of domains I think are pretty cool. I've just never got very far on the project. I'd don't want to let them go but I don't have time for the projects either. Is anyone else on this situation?

I do have some domains I would rent-to-own such as img.chat but most of the domains I have I acquired because I have plans to build projects that they would be used for.

This a pretty brilliant business idea.

Let me know if that is what you are doing, I would be willing to try it out when it launches.
