Lease w/option, renting, and owner financing

[Chip Chronister]

With renting I know that I have to fix stuff when it breaks and right now I don't want to do rentals

With lease with option to purchase when something breaks who pays for it even if I put it in the contract that the tennant is responsible if somthing breaks i.e. an HVAC unit etc.

I know that with a owner finance deal that the owner is resposible for all repairs and up keep

So what is the real difference from these 3.

What I am tring to figure out is somethings with the new dodd frank laws. I am wanting to lease w/option my SFH out for a year and then put them on a contract for deed.
