Looking For Your Most Creative Seller Financing Stories

[Wendy Doris]

I'm looking at a property where the seller is open to financing, but with no terms in mind. I'm in the midst of learning more about them so I can craft an attractive offer. I'd love to know if any of you have had some really creative scenarios you've either heard of or done yourself. I've heard of people offering 5K every Christmas for 5 years or $XXX/mo until the seller dies, and so on. A definite departure from 7% interest on X dollars. 

Have any interesting seller financing stories?
