What are the differences between owner financing and rent with the option to buy?

Kari B asked:


we have a chance to purchase a house with owner financing but are being told that we have to notify them of any major improvements on the property….that sounds more like renting with the option to buy to me….can you please clarify the laws pertaining to this?
