.* Conduct Due Diligence: Before offering seller financing, it is important to conduct a thorough background check on the buyer's credit history and financial situation to ensure they are capable of making the payments.* Hire a Professional: Consider hiring a real estate attorney or a title company that specializes in seller financing to help draft the sales contract and handle the legal and financial aspects of the transaction.* Set Up Payment Collection: Make sure to set up a reliable system for collecting payments, such as automatic withdrawals or monthly invoices.* Plan for Default: It is important to have a plan in place for what will happen if the buyer defaults on the loan.
