Rick Albert Seller Financing in High Cost Areas
3 May 2022 | 5 replies
If rates keep soaring we will have more prevalence of seller financing coming up especially from sellers who were able to capture the lower 2's rates a couple years back and now can earn a spread like 4-5% by wraping the prior note with a new note (AITD - all inclusive trust deed).I would probably recommend using a servicer to keep things arms length and operating/paid on time with escrows for tax/ins to keep the seller concerns at bay since they're concerned if you're going to pay on time or not and if the taxes and insurance will be maintained while the seller carry note is in effect.Plus these servicers make your life easy, they give you a third party that will report your mortgage rating (aka you've paid 12+ months on time) so that when you're applying for another mortgage your life will be easier and you can order this mortgage rating.
