How a Consumer Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Lease To Own Agreement in Texas

In 2022, a personal client in Texas posted a project seeking assistance with drafting a lease-to-own agreement for a property occupied by family members. The client was navigating a complex refinancing process for their home and required a legally sound lease option that would ensure the house could be purchased by their stepdaughter and her husband upon their passing, while also considering the financial interests of the client’s biological son. The urgency was heightened due to the intricacies of Texas laws and the need to provide the agreement to the lending firm promptly. As a result, the client received two proposals from licensed lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $1,500 to $1,500, all submitted to complete the work within the requested deadline of one week.
