Rent to own Video: Clay and Carrico urge support for H.R. 1767
This Rent to Own Video brought to you by APRO's RTOHQ.org 
Watch Congressman William Lacy Clay urge fellow House members to co-sponsor his bill, H.R. 1767, the Consumer Rental Purchase Agreement Act. Noting the benefits to both consumers and the rent-to-own industry that would result from passage of the bill, Clay calls for “undecided” colleagues to get off the fence and support this industry defining legislation.
In conjunction with Clay’s appeal to legislators, APRO President Larry Carrico reminds rent-to-own activists to stay vigilant in following up with their respective congress members and senators in urging them to support the bill as well. | |

The Year of the Tiger According to Chinese astrology, the Year of the Tiger begins in February 2010. Tiger John Cleek is making the most of it as he winds down his two-year term as APRO’s president. He reflects on personal and industry-wide accomplishments and the love of family that sustains him.
In the 30-year history of the Association of Progressive Rental Organizations, 17 rental dealers have served as president. To mark APRO’s special anniversary, 15 of these leaders share their experiences in helping to shape the rent-to-own industry.
The Keep Rate Conundrum Calculating keep rate does not seem to improve the rent-to-own business in any discernible way—and yet this calculation, beyond all the others, has had enormous legal and political implications for rent-to-own almost since its inception.
Vendor Spotlight: What's in a Name? These three departed rent-to-own vendors--Joe Eason, Tom Kitchens and Norm Smith--live on, their names indelibly linked to key industry events and honors.
