Seller Financing: Step by Step
Hi,
I listed one of my properties in Oklahoma on Zillow, and I got an offer. We've agreed on terms for seller financing but I don't know what to do. I typically buy at online auctions so can someone break this down step by step or correct my steps?
1. Buyer makes offer
2. Seller counters or accepts;
3. Buyer sends seller Purchase Agreement
4. Seller send Purchase Agreement to title company (title company only charges if the file closes, right?)
5. Submit Deed of Trust - OR - Mortgage (since it's Oklahoma) along with Purchase Agreement?
6. Title company handles the rest
Where are EMD and downpayment addressed?
Can terms be 500/mo for 360 months as opposed to 50k for 30yrs @ 5% interest? We agreed on 5k down, 0% for 20 years.
Is deed in lieu somethings that's addressed now or given as an option if they default?
