If this is not the appropriate sub for this I apologize. Wife and I are in a living situation that is not ideal, living with my parents after I started nursing school. I will be done with school in about 10 months. She recently lost her job but is about to start a new one that pays about $10k more a year. We’re working on our credit, we were living paycheck to paycheck and credit cards due to the cost of living in pierce and King counties area in Washington state. Now the cost of living is lower where my nursing school is at in Texas. We’re looking at renting for the first year of me working as an RN then buying a house. Wife came across a few rental adds on Zillow and the like that said rent to own. She wants to look into it as pathway to buying a home. I’m weary because I don’t know much about any of this and it sounds like it’s scam/too good to be true. Any insight would be greatly appreciated especially from anyone familiar with Texas property laws, rules and regs. If more info is needed just ask.
