What website can I go to for real estate agencies that do rent to own homes in chicago?

- While there are certainly many agencies that you could use for that type of search, I would probably direct you to look for sites OTHER than realtors first. Not to say that realtors aren't a good source, they can be. But you are going to have your best opportunity and most flexibility with real estate investors like myself. That is because a realtor is given parameters to market the house with (i.e. $5,000 down/ $1,250 @ month). If someone doesn't meet the criteria, they will oftentimes let that person slip away. If you came to me and said, "I only have $4,000 now and can only pay $1,175 a month, there is a possibility I might take it. Further, a real estate's credit criteria might not be as strict as a realtor's might be. Like I said, they are doing what they have been told is acceptable, so it isn't entirely their fault. Look up "we buy houses/your area???" and you should come up with some good leads, then you might do the same with a "rent to own" search Finally, look in the paper under for lease/rent/sale. You should find what you need. Hope that help.
