Questions - I want to sell my duplex and offer owner financing
I want to sell my duplex and offer owner financing.
Location Milwaukee, WI
Where I need feedback is...
1. If I sell the property and the buyer occupies one of the units. Do I need an RMLO (Dodd-Frank)?
2. If I sell to an investor that will rent out both units (not reside in the property), than no RMLO is needed, correct?
3. I want to protect both myself and the buyer. I need recommendations on the process when we agree to the sale price. (i.e.: get a real estate attorney to draft the promissory note and mortgage, close at a local title company, etc.
4. I want to collect property tax and insurance each month from the buyer to ensure these items are getting paid. Can I do this? Do I need to use a special account to hold these funds (escrow)?
5. This property is owned by a single member LLC I created. Can I write up the contracts with the LLC as the seller or is it better to sell in my personal name?
Thanks for your feedback.
