Several problems have occured to get where we are today, needless to say we still have the house on the market.Yesterday I received a call from my agent telling me that there is a couple, he is in the airforce, they are wanting to rent our house for 6 months while he is out on tour and then when he gets back they will use a VA loan to buy the house for the full listing price.I am not a mortgage specialist, but from what I was told through our agent is that after he gets back from this tour, he will then reconnect with his regular full time job, and will acquire a VA loan which supposedly he is already pre-qualified for.I have not done any lease options, but I have wanted to start looking into them, but wasn't prepared to do so with this house.
