Have this bond for deed deal on the table that I'm analyzing. I like the terms and this is my first owner financed deal as well as my first potential rental property so I don't want those factors to cloud my judgement. Would appreciate any thoughts or input. Thanks!

Property(s): Two separate 1 bed, 1 bath cottage style houses on four shared lots in a desirable neighborhood for rentals. One is slightly larger in size than the other with an added office room. Non-flood zone. Central to town. Has two long term tenants in there for the last 12, 14 years. Decent condition.
