Re: rent to own a home
Even if your family were not jealous, all of the details that you ask about should be discussed by you and your grandmother, and should be spelled out in a written agreement between you.
You should consult a real estate attorney to assist you in writing such an agreement and to also advise you about other issues you should include.
