Make sure though that you have reserves in case of needed repairs since you are reducing your cash flow for Year 1.While you would be above the $15-20K range you stated, negotiating a much lower sales price will reduce your down payment and doing a conventional purchase would put you in a much safer situation.Best of Luck!

John Kirk Seller Finance..... (How to persuade seller?)
14 July 2018 | 9 replies
If they specifically need to cash-out to buy another home than seller financing is often DOA.As mentioned, if the have a balance on their underlying mortage- If they want to pay it off it might require a big downpayment- It is possible to leave it in place with a Wrap but that is an advanced strategy and while fairly low risk, the due on sales clause is a concern.On interest rate, my experience is that a seller finance buyer usually has to pay a few points above the going interest rate for conventional/FHA lending so probably closer to 7% these days although it never hurts to ask for lower...All of this is theoretical so the advice to chat with seller to get more information is the right next step.Jeff
