The catch is that you have to occupy, so that limits the way you can invest.If you find a FSBO, they can do whatever you decide to agree on.If you find a long-term private lender, you can do whatever you agree on.If you do flip style, you can buy with hard money for a % of ARV, which may cover up to 100% of the purchase and remodel.

Can I refinance my property which is under lease option agreement

This only pertains to allowances given as credits for loan purposes, if those credits are allowable and you qualify at the required loan to value then the seller may apply all the credits as agreed, these are to separate matters, what is credited as a down payment for a loan and what is agreed to.This is why most rent to own buyers fail, they assume what the pay is credited to obtain a loan and they are not as contracted, you only find out when the property is appraised so you need to save more in the event your contracted payments are limited to only the excess paid over the fair market rent.

What's you story and motivation?

Motivation: always loved houses - and when our 4 kids were small I needed to find flexible ways to make additional incomeBiggest struggles: Early on it was finances - had to work with OWC deals only - learnings: tried to absorb as much as I could from the seller perspective such as: what lenders want to see in a home, how lenders qualify buyers, what buyers want in a house, how to create a viable product with limited funds (safe, legal, and appealing)Love & Hate: love a project - finding the deal, turning a dump into a palace, and getting it sold. hate being a landlord - just not for me.
