Homeaway.com, and Flipkey.com to determine: a) what other rentals are nearby and b) how booked they are.VRBO.com is the best source so start there and search by dates using the "my dates are flexible option."

Sam, I know you do prelim type title searches.

Hello everyone, I've been searching threads for this topic, but is it possible to set up a rent to own agreement with a property of mine while being financed ?

I think I've been signed up for a while and searched questions here and there, but I wanted to formally introduce myself in an effort to better connect with everyone online and offline.

Obviously he used lease purchase methods because a regular "sale" with a deed transfer wouldn't have made it past any cursory title search review, as there were still active foreclosure cases on the properties.

Be sure to search what areas they cover in your state.

You can find us on Biggerpockets under "companies", or through a Google search.

I appreciate you pointing me toward the most pertinent info for newbies like myself (could have taken a while to find that if I was searching on my own)!

Then take the contract to title and have them do a search to insure the property.
