Alternatives to interest home financing : personal lease purchase

Fatawa Question

Is this Riba ? My brother would like to buy a house. I would like to help and invest at the same time. I plan to buy the house for him and charge him a reasonable rent. Each month he will be paying me the rent and extra money until he pays the price of the house. In other words, his ownership of the house increases every month (and my share of the rent decreases) until the price of the house is paid to me. My questions are : is this permissible ? If yes, are there circumstances under which it becomes Riba ? Jazakom Allah Khayran
