Me and DH are looking at a house and are thinking about asking the owner/builder to go through a bond for deed. (thats what its called here in louisiana). The owner wants to do rent to own for a couple of years so we can work on our credit and then apply for the mortgage after that. But me and dh were talking about doin the bond for deed until we get his credit up, that way we can still get the tax credit. Has anyone done this before? How is it? Pros and Cons?

I don't think so you have to own the house to get the first time buyer credit.
