Question : Our daughter signed a lease with option to buy. They moved into the home about one month ago.?
Can the owners start to make them get a survey done, an appraisal done, and a home inspection done this soon? I thought they would have a year to decide if they wanted to purchase the home. The owner states that her son really needs to get the house sold now because he needs the money. Our daughter doesn’t want to be continually told to have to get this done now or get that done now, but wants to make sure that the home and area is where they want to be for a long time. Our daughter is a very easy going and kind person and wants to make sure that she keeps a good relationship with the owner. How can she handle this? She lives in Houston Texas. Thanks!

This is what happens when you don’t have a Realtor to look over the contract and to consult with, and now weird things are starting to happen, and your daughter has no idea of what to do…or probably, what she signed.

Now your daughter needs to pay a Real Estate attorney to review things and find out first, if the landlord can do what he’s doing.

I have no idea of what your daughter signed, and no one else does either b/c Realtors use standard forms that have been approved by an attorney or the Bar Association of their state.
