LESSON 4 — SELLER FINANCING (The Buyer’s Best Friend)


Seller financing is the most powerful tool in the industry — when offered.

Typical structures:

  • 20–40% down
  • 5–7% interest
  • 3–10 year balloon
  • Amortized over 20–25 years
  • Flexible qualification
  • No bank needed
  • Faster closings

Why sellers offer it:

  • Tax benefits
  • Higher purchase price
  • Faster sale
  • Broader buyer pool

Why buyers love it:

  • Easier approval
  • Flexible terms
  • Lower closing costs
  • No DSCR requirement

What buyers misunderstand:

If seller financing is offered, treat it like GOLD — because it is.

Not every seller will do this.
It requires:

  • Trust
  • Clean communication
  • Strong buyer profile

You must show the seller you’re serious.
