In our experience as the Real Estate Broker/Owner of a Franchise Operation, we found that Agents and Brokers are often reluctant to suggest Seller Financing (Owner Financing/Seller Carry Back) to the Sellers when listing a property. Sometimes, using Seller Financing is the ONLY way a property can be sold, particularly if the property is non-conforming, in a transition zone, needs rehabbing, has excess land or involves vacant raw land.

Seller financing differs from a traditional loan because the seller does not give the buyer cash to complete the purchase, as does a lender. Instead, it involves extending a credit against the purchase price of the home while the buyer executes a promissory note and deed of trust in favor of the seller. Generally, the paper work is prepared by a Title and Escrow Company. The Broker prepares an offer to purchase much like any other Offer to Purchase and Receipt for Deposit.

The Seller Carry Back Mortgage or Trust Deed is a tried and true method of facilitating the sale of real property. Seller financing allows the parties to decide on the interest rate, term and payment schedule. Often these are tailor made to meet the needs of both parties. Other benefits include:

  • Minimized cost of sales transaction
  • Escrow will Close quickly
  • You can Sell a property that otherwise would not qualify for a loan
  • Your seller will be able to defer capital gains with an installment sale
  • When your seller agrees to provide owner carry back financing it provides a larger pool of buyers for you and for them
  • Sometimes obtains a higher price by offering terms
  • Allows greater flexibility in financing
  • Provides income stream through interest income with Secure Property
  • Loan Servicing with Note Servicing Center can OVERCOME Seller Objections to carrying back paper by providing the following benefits:
  • Seller can SELL note for Cash, or sell “part of the note” and keep part of payment
  • No Hassle in Collection of the Payments – No more “the check is in the mail”
  • Set up an Escrow/Impound Fund for Taxes and Insurance and pay them when due
  • Provide Collection Services
  • Freedom of Seller to Travel without worry

The Seller will be required to provide an IRS form 1098 to the Buyer and file an IRS form 1099. But don’t worry about that. The Note Servicing Center takes care of this task – no problem.

Typical documents recommended for Seller Financing are the Mortgage Note or Note and Recorded Trust Deed, Seller Financing Statement and Request for Notice of Delinquency (If a second Mortgage or Note.)
