Just be aware that this adds another layer of complexity, and you’ll want to check with both your lender and a real estate attorney to make sure everything is set up correctly.When it comes to terms, owner financing gives you a lot of flexibility:Interest rate: You want something attractive to the buyer but that compensates you for the risk of holding that second lien.Repayment schedule: You can choose a traditional 15- or 30-year schedule, or go with something shorter if you want to be paid off sooner.Balloon payment: Many owner-financed deals include a balloon payment, meaning the buyer pays off the remaining balance after a set period (usually 5-10 years).

DSCR loans don't require personal income verification or a debt-to-income ratio, making them ideal for properties with strong cash flow, even if the current owner has credit issues.Here's how it could work:You could use a DSCR loan to refinance the hard money loan, securing more favorable terms without having to involve the seller's credit.Since the rental income easily covers the property’s debt service, you’ll be in a good position for lender approval, bypassing the conventional mortgage route.This approach could allow the owner to stay in the house, while you take over financing with a less restrictive structure.
