Lease option question for Ohio

[Joe S.]

 I have a property that I am looking to buy in Ohio that I am considering doing a lease option as my exit strategy, is there anything that I need to be aware of to be compliant for Ohio?

 So you're going to buy the property? And then lease it out with a tenant who has an option to buy it within a certain amount of time for an agreed upon price?

You'll want to confirm with the lender that that doesn't trigger a due on sale clause due to the lease option tenant now having an "ownership interest" in the property.

I would consult with a title attorney for this.
