If you are her, ignore the last name (as it's changed) and contact me personally.Tue, 17 Mar 2009 21:29:11 -0700http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-70461-250734/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-70461-250734/Hi,Terri: here are some basics about rent to own:1. You would need to sign a contract to buy the house within a certian time period(usually 12 months)2. you would pay the owner a non refundable deposit( usually 10% of the purchase price. For example,on a $100,000 house--$10,000. 3. you would pay the owner a monthly rent ABOVE market rate during the specified time period.4. The deposit & the extra money would be put into an escrow account which would go to build up your down payment5. At the end of the term,you would take these escrow funds & go to a lender to get financing.6. if you do not go through with the purchase you forfeit this escrow account. So,you see that this would not work with a Section 8 voucher.Possibly if you contact your local Dept. of social Services,they may be able to furnish you with a list of Section 8 approved rentals.Tue, 17 Mar 2009 16:04:51 -0700
