Close to restaurants and bars is great, but if not, a nice neighborhood that's walkable, that's close to "stuff."

Amen brother.......But you kno those landlord tenant laws in Portland, New York & California are created with everything but common sense. 

But sellers typically prefer not to retain the buyer's contact information to facilitate a clean transition to the next transaction and avoid potential financial entanglements, It's essential for buyers to recognize that the original owner could reclaim ownership if the property was purchased from a title sale auction, with specific state regulations, such as a 2-year reclamation period in New York, Despite these factors, owner financing can benefit buyers by fostering a sense of connection with the seller.
