BEST ANSWER
If you utilized the service of a realtor,call them. If not, did you use an attorney? If this is so, call the attorney. There should have been a sales contract signed by both parties if it was indeed a lease with option to buy--check your contract carefully--it might have ended up as a straight lease without your realizing that to be the case. There is a difference between a lease with an option to buy and a lease purchase (in the lease purchase, there may be a promis to apply some of rental monies toward the purchase price). Is there an escrow account (money you paid to a title company to be held as a "deposit" on your purchase? All these questions need to be answered before we can give you more information. I hope this helps you
