@James Edward
My preferred method is seller financing because of the flexibility you have with the terms. I have found them simply by networking and asking the question “would you consider seller financing”. Some people understand the concept and are willing to do it and some people don’t understand and you have to explain it to them but overall, it’d a relatively simple process.
