What rental-property owners should know about seller financing?

September 12, 2015

Thinking about selling your rental property?

Then consider financing the deal yourself. (Real-estate pros call this arrangement a “seller take-back.”)

If you’re worried about a buyer not paying up, you should know that a default can actually be profitable for you.

Here’s some good advice… read my new article Tax Tips: Cash In When the Buyer Defaults on Your Seller Financing.

Three ways our fact-filled article can help you:

  1. You’ll learn four reasons seller financing may make sense for you. Why would you even consider a take-back mortgage? Because if you handle things correctly, you can make a lot of more money. You’ll get all the details when you read the full article.
  2. We’ll tell you what to do if your buyer does default. First of all, don’t panic! If you structured things properly, you can repossess your property and actually come out a winner. We’ll tell you how when you read the full article.
  3. We’ll provide concrete examples that show you how to avoid problems before they start. Yes. Seller take-backs can get a little complicated. For example, you’ll need to understand Sections 1245 and 1250 of the tax code. That’s where we come in. We’ll explain everything in easy-to-understand language when you read the full article.
