Ignore seller finance for a second...Can you buy a house, put 20% down...yes.

Still, we've re-opened our VRBO listing and have just started a listing with Mini Stays to see how they perform. 

Sometimes I've heard of PMLs doing "creative" financing like this where maybe they do a very short-term loan that can be paid back once you sell the land.

Often times, their approval processes are slow.Credit Unions - Their member structure also subsidizes their financial structure so they can also be a source of low-cost financing.

Whenever I am having an issue with financing, I normally reach out to local institutions.

Seller financing can be a fantastic way to get into a 4+ unit property, especially in a competitive market like Chicago.Have you started reaching out to owners directly or networking with agents who specialize in multifamily properties?

Hi guysI have a handyman who is super knowledgeable and he is very comfortable connecting the 220 wires for a mini split and also for a hot tub. im getting extremely high quotes for a certified electrician to do it. what are your thoughts?

I would like to learn more about seller financing, I see a lot of information on the internet about seller financing but honestly I am just confused.

Does anyone have much success buying SFH with seller financing? 

If you’re looking at retrofitting to separate heating for each unit (like furnaces or mini-splits), you might be looking at a higher upfront cost, but it can shift utility expenses to tenants and improve your NOI.I’d factor in boiler age and efficiency when analyzing deals and if it’s near the end of its life, negotiate a price reduction or a credit.
