Buying a House in Installments

Question
My mother is in America and lives in a rented apartment, and now she wants to buy a house on an installment plan. Is it permissible for her to buy it? She searched the internet regarding those living in America and they said it is permissible, but we want to confirm with you.
Answer
I say, and with God's help: it is permissible if it is not in an usurious manner, and God knows best.
