John Dean Seller Financing / loan servicing
11 July 2024 | 12 replies
If the property can be sold with conventional financing I am on the other side of things (and the minority) they seller financing is a bad idea due to the risk and the returns especially when considering tax ramifications The idea behind it would be that I sell using seller financing to continue to cash flow each month at a high effective rate with the amortization schedule and put a balloon after 7 years so that I can collect the full amount once the effective rate in the amortization schedule starts to balance out and not be so lucrative in my favor.I’d love to hear more of your opinion on that idea!

Robby Sanchez first house hack
