We are looking into the possibility of a rent-to-own when the money from my old house comes in next month. Tybalt is very leery, dare I say paranoid? about this idea, saying it sounds too good to be true.
Anyone out there have any experiences, good or bad, with this sort of thing? Our only other choices are 1) finding a new rental place, which we've been trying to do since December without any luck at all, so I can't see that working, and 2) buying a mobile home, which I've heard all sorts of horror stories about (property managers deciding to move you to a new lot, changing the bylaws about pets after you move in, etc).
We have to find a place before our lease is up at the end of October, but the landlord is making noises once again like he wants us out sooner, so the sooner the better.
Thanks!
