Hello Tara,
In our current market we are seeing Sellers more flexible with accepting Lease/Purchases. I have recently helped two couples get into homes under the same conditions. There are some homes in the North Hall area that have that option. Also some builders are willing to do that as well. If you like call me and I can send you the properties to your email. We can then also discuss what it really means to Lease to Purchase.
Take care,
Megan Thoroman

Hi Tara! I think first you really need to sit down with a loan officer to see if you have to "lease purchase." It would be better for you to purchase upfront and yes the FHA regulations have loosened up and they are helping a ton of people get approved. I'd love to meet with you at your convience and we can go over everything you are looking for in a home, etc.

Thanks,

Tara,

I work the Clermont, Dahlonega, Cleveland, etc. area and as of last Wednesday there were approx. 50 homes for sale in the Clermont area. About 20 to 30 percent were 4 bedrooms. I do not recall any of the properties being listed as either lease purchase or owner financing, however, that does not mean the owners would not consider.

To narrow the choices and actually ask the right questions, we would have to have a discussion about price ranges, credit score, etc. You should be advised that FHA has recently loosened their limits and there could be a possibility for a FHA loan. Again, we would have to look at the particulars of your situation.

In the meantime, if you want to view the available properties, you can go to my web site (see address below) and use the search feature to pull up all of the homes. Also, if you have any other questions I may help you with, you can call me anytime.

Good luck in your search,
