Owner finance deal. Good or bad?
Looking for advice on owner finance deal from a family member off market.
3 bed 1 bath house with garage. Class B- neighborhood in the midwest. Rent would be around $800-900.
95k buying price. 5k down payment with a 6% interest rate over 18 years.
My question is, does the higher interest rate and lower/if any cash flow make up for the owner finance and only having to put down such a low amount instead of 20%.
I have other rentals that cash flow just fine and a full time job in which I make decent money. Will increasing number of doors owned be better down the road or is this just a bad deal all around.
Thanks for the advice!
