Hey @Glenn Larson  You’re right, seller financing really depends on the seller’s flexibility and the specifics of the deal, but I can give you a couple of typical structures to think about:Interest-only payments: In this setup, you pay the seller interest on the loan without paying down the principal right away, giving you time to stabilize the property or improve cash flow before paying it off or refinancing.Balloon payment: You might negotiate a lower monthly payment (possibly interest-only) with a balloon payment due after 5-10 years.
