Mind if I ask specifically what the 200k capex is for? Also, has the contract already been signed with these seller financing terms? The rate isn't bad at all, but a 3 year balloon and a 50% down payment isn't really common. I don't know, I'd be a little nervous about being trapped here. I've heard of nefarious sellers who use terms like these to get someone to sign a contract, knowing that there is a small likelihood that the property gets sold or refinanced in 3 years and then they get to repossess the property.

I'm not saying at all that this is what that is, but how are they justifying these terms exactly? I would be cautious.
