Agreement Letter for Hire Purchase


Hire Purchase Agreement Letter is a formal document that outlines the terms and conditions of a hire purchase arrangement between a lender or vendor (the "seller") and a borrower or buyer (the "hirer").

In a hire purchase agreement, the hirer obtains goods with an agreement to make periodic payments over a specified time, during which ownership of the goods remains with the seller. Ownership is typically transferred to the hirer only after the final payment is made.

Here are two sample Hire Purchase Agreement Letters. Each example includes the necessary details for a hire purchase arrangement, including terms for payments, ownership transfer, and responsibilities.
