Re: real estate
It is possible. The loans on the property may be part of a blanket loan that covers multiple properties. The seller would need to guarantee a Warranty Deed (not a Quit Claim Deed) will be given to you. If the seller can not deliver a Warranty Deed, then have the seller agree to refund your downpayment, in writing of course.
Make sure that you get all of this in writing and part of the lease-purchase contract.
