Quote from @Hector Espinosa: Hi,I'm negotiating a seller financing deal which may be my first one and would like to ask for some advise about and what are advantages and disadvantages about seller financing deals.These are the seller financing terms:House Price: $330,000.00 USD​ (Sellers still owe ~$301,000 USD)Down Payment: 5% = $16,500 USD​Loan Amount: $313, 500​ (Monthly payments will be amortized as a 30 years loan​)Interest Rate: 4.531%Balloon Loan Term: 5 YearsMonthly Payment (P&I): $1,594.24​Closing Costs:  ~$3300 ​Zip Code: 74105Observations:       * HVAC requires an update but pending to inspection (replacing with a new one will cost ~$10,000 - $15,000 USD )     * Expected Rent Income: $2,000- $2,300 but this is has been really complicated to get a good estimate because is all over the place in the different sites I have checked

Can you replace furnace, stove, etc with all electric and save 300 to 400 a month there? 

Would slow and steady be replaced with meteoric?

For replacement canoes that got damaged by straight line winds.  

Proc. 2004-51, qualified indicia of ownership were transferred to the the earlier of a total of 180 – days or the date upon which the exchanger has to file its tax return for the year in which the exchange was initiated, to complete the purchase of the replacement properties."

Every single surface in the house was redone/replaced.

If they are cash-flowing and easy on management, there is no reason to refi to pull the equity because you will really hurt your cash flow with the higher rates.The best first flips to me are dumps that only need direct replacement and not a square footage add or a ton of walls down just for timeline integrity.

If you’re asking for replacement figure out how much more the home would be with that being replaced and temper your request.

Purchase price: $179,000 Cash invested: $25,000 Sale price: $500,000 Replaced windows, remodeled kitchen and bathroom, replaced siding What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

However, as @Chad Hale mentioned, only if you can afford it - meaning both financially and mentally (e.g. how stable are both of your jobs, how long will it take you or your husband to find a replacement job, how much you have in reserves, and whether you guys are in a position to withstand that mental stress, etc.)When you mention 8k monthly, I am assuming that's net profit?
