Thanks for your responses. I didn't realize the term land contract (renting to own) wasn't that familiar in this area. It sounds like I may have a bit of a challenge finding a realtor in this area who can help me with it. I was already planning on hiring an attorney, if I found a home that fit the description. So I'm comfortable with that regard.
I didn't realize the info you provided on FHA mortgages. I'll also check that out and see where that takes me. But again, thank you both for your info.
