Seller Financing Structure/Terms

[Tim Farmer]

What type of creative seller financing structures have BP members used to get a deal done?  I'm in Los Angeles and I think the only way I'm going to be able to put together a deal that cash flows will be to do some sort of seller financing/installment setup.  Can someone share the details of the structure/terms of their creative deals?  

I've also heard about outlining several financing options when submitting an offer (i.e. 1 traditional financing, 2 creative/seller financing options) where you show the value of seller financing to the seller (quicker close, tax savings of spreading income over several years, interest earned, etc.).  Has anyone done this?  Would love to see an example if so (with sensitive info redacted of course).  Thanks!
