We'd have a duplex an easy walk from campus.

I wonder what investors offer as a means not to have the sellers pay the gain all at once. etc. 

It's all about what you have to offer.

Harvest Blue Houston, a registered series of Texas Real Estate Group LLCTexas is one of the few states that offer series LLC.

Brand new construction with traditional boveda ceilings, professionally designed and decorated, 100% turnkey for second home or Airbnb. 25 minute walk to the historic center and in gated community. $200,000 USDDid you sell this already? 

@Jared Schottthe short answer is - if the house is already on the market, it's extremely unlikely that they will accept a seller finance offer. 

The folks at mass save said there is a new program as of 2023 that offers $5000 per unit for knob and tube remediation and said I could take a heat loan of max $10,000 per unit as well for the balance so I am hoping that is true.

Of course they can get a higher sale price if they are willing to take on someone who cannot get a loan, or are offering better terms than current loan options.

It's a bridge that creates opportunities to get creative or to make cash offers on RE.

But with the above, please make sure you're not that obnoxious next door house whose light comes on anytime someone walks the sidewalk or drives by in the road.
