Buy a Property with Seller Financing, No Credit Check

Seller financing can be a win-win for both buyers and sellers

Owner financing — also known as seller financing — lets buyers pay for a new home without relying on a traditional mortgage. Instead, the homeowner (seller) finances the purchase, sometimes at an interest rate higher or lower than current mortgage rates, sometimes with a balloon payment due after a few years.

Owner Financing Sample

For example, a homebuyer wants to purchase a historic home that doesn’t qualify for a conventional mortgage due to its age, condition or building type. The borrower offers to purchase the home for $800,000 with a $250,000 down payment — just over 30% of the purchase price.

The seller agrees to finance the remaining $550,000 at an interest rate of 7% for a five-year term and amortized over 20 years — resulting in a balloon payment of about $470,000 due at the end of five years. Over the course of the loan, the buyer makes monthly payments of $4,260 and is responsible for property tax and insurance payments.

At closing, the buyer receives title to the home that is subject to a mortgage held by the seller. After five years of on-time monthly payments, the buyer makes the final balloon payment and the mortgage lien is released. #sellerfinanced #homebuyerstool
