Where is the best place to find rent to own homes?
I have a buyer looking to buy rent to own homes in my state. The location for these homes are far outside my jurisdiction. You know where I can find leads for these rent to own homes? I honestly don't have time to go and search for these leads especially in the locations they are in. Any suggestions how I can find these homes?

Antonio, STOP. Please, just stop.
Every time you post a new thread you make it a point to say you don't have the time to do the necessary steps in order to be successful in the area of real estate that you're trying to focus on. You are a prime example of what gives wholesalers a bad name. It isn't a get rich quick gimmick. You MUST put in the time and educate yourself in order to have any kind of success. I say this with looking at the history of the threads you have created and the posts you have made. You quite honestly have no business putting properties under contract because you don't know what you're doing yet.
I wish I could be encouraging to you and tell you to chase your dream but you need a dose of reality. Try to open yourself up to the idea of working harder and finding enough time to do this business properly. Listen to the advice that successful people are giving you and use it as a tool for learning something new instead of consistently replying with an excuse of why you don't have the time or why it won't work for you.
Again, I am sorry to be so harsh but hopefully it's something you need to hear and will help you long term.
