Also, how should I structure the repayment?

Was wondering how do I convince anybody to fund my deal as far as what kind of repayment terms do I write in?

It was a unique 2 family home in the town/area that we wanted to live in.

If I could talk the sellers down a bit, there would be quite a bit of equity built in and I could sell some of the duplexes at market price to repay the loan and keep the remaining units.

It is not only money, but also emotions and the uniqueness of each property that makes real estate different.

@Kyle Bethune this is certainly a unique property from a lending perspective. 

What is considered normal or acceptable vs more unique negotiations.A PGs limited to a specific period of time (less than the life of the loan)?

Had some very unique red tape to go through on the purchase and actually took over 3 months to purchase.

I've got a unique situation that I can't find an answer for in the forums.

Namely, by not getting one lump payment for the building, but rather spreading the repayments over a number of years will the seller be protecting himself from being hit on capital gains tax?
