Is there any way to get assurances or but it in a contract where we can ensure that the rent we pay is going towards our purchase of the home?

Now if you are doing complex creative owner financing, wraps, need clever clauses, encounter title issues, doing messy deals, or are buying commercial property, etc, then you may want to pre-meet legal and other transaction professionals.

Can anyone offer some creative ideas or solutions?

Just be very diligent in ensuring those rents are legit.

I love how creative each person can get with a contract and a listing!

But if you are well seasoned in the lease option market and you can't make it work in your area then I can understand trying to be more creative rather than using what has already proven to work.

We need to find creative ways to get our property in front of students/realtors as most tenants search the Internet and although our property is approximately one mile from campus it does not appear in searches when looking in the specific city because it is actually in a different city!

Hello All,So I'm looking for some personal opinion, preferences, and insight.I'm beginning the search for my second property (first closes on 7/8 hopefully) and I would like to either use the FHA and 3.5% down route to buy more, and purchase a 2-4 unit, living in one side for at least a year, aka a househack,or,I would like to find an area in the Greater Pittsburgh area, SFR, for about $165,000 or less (this would ensure I'm paying less on the mortgage then I currently am while I'm renting, with the intent to make larger payments I'm used to making and paying it down quicker).
