In the USA, There are many properties available on a rent to own basis. I would like to suggest you that you can also find on the internet. Rent to own is a great way to get onto the property ladder and, unlike normal renting, you have something to aim for and to call your own at the end of the agreed term. However, there are pitfalls and some people who go for this option don't really understand what they are getting into. So, as with all matters of a life changing manner, it is important to seek advice from a qualified financial professional. Sometimes it is possible to rent a house from someone who later decides they want to sell and will offer you first refusal. It may be hard to spot these, but a realtor may be able to help.
