I viewed a house yesterday that I actually liked quite a bit. I also thought that since it had been vacant for awhile, it would be a good option as a lease purchase.
The other agent just called for feedback and I asked if the seller would consider a lease w/option to purchase and she said that they had just been talking about that and that they would; she just wasn't sure what the option payment would be. So, she is supposed to call me back.
Part of me is excited (finally- a house I like AND it could be leased) and part of me is scared sh!tless that if they do come back with something favorable and I go for it, that it would be the end of the marriage. OR it could be the beginning of my H coming to his senses- that would be the gamble.
It was the first house I saw that I said "wow-now if I could get this on a lease, I would probably do it." Shoot.

Pretend you're single. You just found this house, and it could be exactly what you wanted. Maybe you'll meet Mr. Perfect (haha) tomorrow, but you don't know that. What would you do?

You getting a house would NOT be the end of the M. He will get out if he wants to regardless of whether you buy a house. He will work like crazy to get you back if that's what he wants. So follow YOUR road and do what works for you. If it stirs him up that's gravy.
HUGS!
