So a little background, me and my boyfriend were looking into renting our first home in about 3 weeks. The area we are looking in has next to nothing available for what we need. Fenced yard, updated, pets allowed, in our price range, etc. And I mean we scoured the entire state almost looking for something. Well I finally found something! Super cute, reasonable, everything we needed! I'm super excited at this point.

Well I get back and my boyfriend tells me his family is going to buy us a house and we are going to rent it from them/pay it off in the meantime. I get it's a great opportunity but it bothers me a lot. And he got incredibly angry at me for not being super excited.

-First; we arent married and in no way is this "our" house. It's his and this really makes him angry that I look at it like this. My parents are in no way involved. HIS parents are gifting this to him. 
-Second; I didnt want my first home I ever buy/help buy to go like this. I really like working for something (building up a down payment) and really feeling accomplished and achieved afterwards. It really steals that from me. He doesnt really understand because hes never saved up to buy anything. 
-Third; It bothers me my parents arent at all involved. My mother is a realtor and I really wanted both parties involved but more of a side line. Not a middle man acting as a decision maker. It makes it less enjoyable. His parents are going to dictate what we want. 
Fourth; This is very stressful having such little time and little money they are giving us. I didnt want a super old home as our plan was to purchase pretty high when we were ready. But I feel accepting this offer would mean we would have to live in it for a good portion of our lives. We are still fairly young. I didnt want to be looking at school districts to make sure my kid will be going to a good school.

This is all very overwhelming and just way to much. I just want to do things the old fashioned way. Did I deserve getting such a intense response for not being excited and just meh about it? AITA?
