[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 255210, member: 1550"] Thanks, everyone. We actually got a strange gift today. I went into a gas station to buy coffee and I saw "Rental house" in my town. Obviously, I grabbed a tag with the # on it and call Travis, the owner. He not only would like to rent the house, he'd like to SELL it! And he's willing to rent it to us while we make up our credit and then sell it to us. In fact, he seemed relieved and enthusiastic. I rushed home even before I saw the house, got my daughter (who is home from school) and we looked at the house. It's pretty nice. Not perfect. But it's in OUR town and we wouldn't be moving too far. And, hey, it has a nice deck! I neve had a deck before. Always wanted one. Hub is going to meet with owner today and we're going to bang out terms. We learned from out last rent-to-own. You get a lease, you let a lawyer look at it, then you register it with the city. Now even if we just rent the place for a year, we should have fixed our credit by then, and we can get a loan and bid on another place, if this guy changes his mind. However, we tend to like to stay where we're at and we do want to live in our little village. So right now--well, most of you know I believe in the paranormal and good spirits--and God in all of us--I think everyone is working in our favor. I don't believe in coincidences. When I walked into that gas station the last thing I expected to see was a rental home in my village, as there are SO FEW. And when I called Travis the last thing I expected was for him to be so eager to rent to sell. So...things are looking up. [/QUOTE]
