Selling Seller Financing

[Emily Howlett]

Hi all! I’m trying to convince a homeowner that seller financing is a good deal for both of us. So far I’ve thought of the following benefits for them, and I’m looking for help to see if the upsides are valid and or if I’ve missed anything:

- Keeps the seller from jumping to the next tax bracket due to income from sale

- Can defer capital gains taxes over years rather than paying all at once

- Monthly income over time

Any thoughts or input would be greatly appreciated!
