Are Lease options in Texas legal?

[Phillip Dill]

Hey guys I've read a lot about creative ways i could use lease options but then i heard that you can't do it in Texas. Can someone please clarify if Lease Options are illegal ? Thanks

They're not illegal but the legislature doesn't like them and recent changes to the law make them very risky for the seller. I wouldn't consider doing one without having an attorney draw up the contract.

@Phillip Dill  @Fred Heller  is exactly right.  They are not illegal but if you are planning on being "creative" with them I would suggest you just sign the property over to the buyer and don't look back.
