If rent to own, #1 option is to find a realtor. FYI, rent to own is not always a good option. First, you'll need to pay a low down payment. Second, your monthly fee will be higher than normal as some of it goes into your down payment slot. Few years after, your initial down payment + monthly saving would equal to the sufficient downpayment for you to get financing from the bank. If in any case, that you want out in the rent to own lease, you might likely lose your initial down payment. I suggest you carefully read your lease before signing it.
