Seller wants 1031- I want seller financing

[Adam R.]

I am trying to finalize terms on a seller financed deal. The seller wants to do a 1031 exchange and has reservations about seller financing understandably so. I'm considering offering a large down payment(maybe 50%), then no monthly payments, and a balloon payment for the balance due at 5 years. Effectively it would be a 0% loan. Would this structure help the seller from a 1031 perspective?
