Typical seller financed terms usually assume $10K-$20K downpayment and an interest rate at least a few points north of prime (right now, >7%)   It can be 30yr fixed or 5-10yrs with a balloon.These are really rough guidelines but every deal is different depending on your strategy...

Usually your own capital meaning you can’t borrow it.

I usually can search name and address of a property but can’t find a cell number.

Usually, the leases transfer with the COE.

But it is a bit risky and there's usually a big fish at the auctions who buys up most of the properties (and bids up the rest).

Peeps still have to live somewhere and there is still some benefit to owning a home than renting .. it could just be over building in your area as well.. you see that a lot with condo developments the lag time to get them up is so long that by the time they come to market the market cant absorb more.Not sure in Austin other than there was from what I understand a large run up.. but I can see luxury pricing in Texas being an issue with the prop tax's that are quite a bit higher than other parts of the country but that is usually mitigated for texas residence who don't pay state income tax as there is none in Texas.. so I think texas for TExans is a great investment long term. 

Like usual, I called what I thought was a bluff and they accepted the offer before it expired that day.Comps for four unit houses are hard to find for this city, but from what I found on Zillow doing comps it was worth 526K.
