Should I rent to own or keep renting

Hi guys,

I need your advices, I can’t decide on my own.

I‘m renting an apartment 2 bed 1 bath for $360/week, the owner about to sell it so it suppose to increase after lease (next 6 months) - I live in NT.

I have a chance to buy a land which is 70km away from the town, 45km to the nearest city, no bore (they tried once but it’s a dry bore), no electricity (I will need to put the electricity pole on my own) -$225k.

They will do vendor finance, $500/week for 3 years and after 3 years bank will jump in and lend me the rest to buy it, $500/weeks will be deduct straight to $225k.

I have my partner, 1 kid (2 years old boy) so would put a container on the land and start surviving.

Should I move forward with the land?

What do I need to considering for this kind of decision?
