Was online looking for houses to rent when I came across an add for a rent to own with possible owner finace. I spoke with a very nice gentleman about viewing a house on the southwest side of town. Found it would be a great starter home for my family, so asked what we would need to do to get into it.
Was told to put down $5000 and then first month would be $1100. So went and put 5000 down and was told due to the house being as is they would waiver the rest of the week left in the month. Moved in and dropped another 1100 for the first month.
Things were great first two months but when I went to pay the third month's rent was notified that the check i wrote for the month before was an nsf check. I asked why they had not notified me so i could correct it.
Was told we sent it twice and it was returned. Notified them no one was home during the day and that no notices were left. Why didn't they call. Its not are job to call you. Went ahead and tried to make arrangements to bring payments current, was unable to cause every time went to make payment amount went up.
First it was $1250 then $1375 then $2500 then called to make $2500 payment they would only accept $2750 then i finally gave up when then kicked my family out of the house while i was out of town working it was going to take $4000 to get caught up to their standards as a "company " I was evicted and screwed out of basically $8300. Just get screwed by the banks its less painful.
