@Travis DalkeThere are 3 main parts to a seller financing deal: down payment, interest rate, and price (4th would be the term).

If you choose to go down the lease option route be sure to hire an attorney that understand the very specific requirements need to be followed.Several years ago, Texas revised its lease option laws in response to widespread misuse by landlords who collected substantial option fees from tenants unlikely to afford the purchase, only to evict them shortly thereafter.

I'm seeing conditions vary from turnkey/rented to almost tear down. 

Replacing water heater is cheap but if you owned condo in upper stair and water heater is leaking, your damage cost can be substantial because it may flood all the way down the unit on the first floor.

If what they put down meets your qualifications, send them a link to run credit and/or background check at their cost.

My head was telling me to walk from the EMD, but my ego told me I could pull it off.

I would not start investing, creating businesses, or doing anything in life based on a unicorn example, whether it be real or imagined.I would look at the industry from the top down, figure out what realistic margins are, and see if I can gain a competitive advantage or beat general market returns by a few % points.  

So we negotiated for a seller financing deal with very little down and a very low interest rate How did you finance this deal?
