    If the deed & contract are done properly and LEGALLY, seller financing is the way to go!

    I have personally bought three rental properties using owner financing, not from relatives, and I have sold two properties using owner financing. The main difference it that instead of the bank having a lien on the property, you have the seller as the lien holder. In today's higher interest rate environment, I expect that more people will consider this option.

    The reason the seller wants to do it is because he or she will collect the interest payments, instead of a bank, which means their profit will be much higher than the asking price.

    Yes, get an attorney to draft the contract because the protections work both ways. Prime example is the reason mortgage companies insist on escrow accounts where they pay the taxes and insurance. Hint: it is not done as a convenience to the buyer.
    Personally, I think the seller is assuming much more risk than the buyer in these types of transactions.

      There are clauses in a lot of mortgages that if you choose to pay for the property taxes/homeowners insurance yourself and fail to do so, the bank covers those expenses and increases your interest rate as a penalty. I’ve seen people with 12.5% mortgages in those situations. It could benefit the lender to have that stipulation in the mortgage.

    Dave I need help. My son recently found black mold on a home he’s been renting for about a year and never been late . Owner refuses to fix then he went and gave a person $1700.00 to move into a new home with intention of buying,they had code to door and then said he was scammed? Help with either or both problems would be helpful or rules to follow. I’ve listened to you but I’m just not that smart. Thanks for everything you do to help folks. Prayers to keep you going

    I SEE NO ONE MENTIONED THIS, BUT IF THE PROPERTY OWNER HAS OR GETS A LOAN ON SAID PROPERTY, HE NOW HAS A LIEN. IF HE DEFAULTS ON THAT LOAN, HE LOSES THE PROPERTY, AND SO DOES THE PERSON THAT BOUGHT IT FROM HIM OWNER FINANCE. I LOST A TRUCK AND LATER ALMOST LOST MY HOME. I SUED THE LENDER THAT GAVE HIM A LOAN ON THE PROPERTY HE HAD A OWNER FINANCE CONTRACT WITH ME. I ENDED UP BUYING THE PROPERTY FROM THE LENDER, AND THE OTHER INDIVIDUAL GOT IN A LOT OF CRIMINAL TROUBLE.

    Question here for anyone out there. We did a one year lease to own a home. We gave a deposit of 10% total home price as down payment the the personal lender (private party). We no longer want the home, there’s quite a few things going wrong with it and we are no longer planning on purchasing it. Is there anyway to get out of this early? We know we forfit the deposit. But the stress of the cost is to much plus repairs, even if the landlord is responsible for them.

      You’d be amazed how many sellers want the property to go to someone they kinda know and are very interested in a simple transaction. And they stand to make money with interest, whereas the bank makes the interest otherwise. It’s usually a win win if the agreement is right and it’s done the legal way. We are going to see a lot more of this as interest rates go up.
