Is there any downside to this scenario?

From seller:

Okay here is an idea proposal: price $160,000 you put $3000 down get a loan for $112,000 being 70% LTV that = the $115,000. We take back a 2nd mortgage for$45,000 with a no penalty for early payment and you buy out that 2nd mortgage for $1.00 in about 30 days after we close..... The payment on 112k loan for 20 yrs at 4% is about $840 month + taxes, ins, utilities will be about $1200 month and income is over $2400 month leaving great cash flow! You have an almost 100% financed property other than the 3k invested! What your thoughts?

It does not matter what the seller thinks it will appraise for.  Have you done your own analysis of what it is worth?
