Quit claim deed. HELP. Advise needed
Hi guys,
I am working on a sale of a property. I am going to owner finance. It is a very inexpensive property that needs a lot of work. The property is in New Orleans, Louisiana and here are the terms...
$7000 sale price
$500 down payment
7% interest
Amortized over 7 years
Total due in 2 years
Here is my question. Buyer wants me to do a quit claim deed, and record the loan. He says he does not want to pay a closing attorney to close the sale. I am hesitant. My thinking is if I do a quit claim deed and he doesn't pay, I can't foreclose and take the property back. Am I correct?
What are my options if he doesn't pay?
Has anyone ever done a sale this way?
If you are familiar with Louisiana laws that may help also.
