Owner Seller financing

Terry Williams

My question is should I try to avoid the realtor that the seller has hired ?

I am trying to obtain a commercial property using owner financing. I have talked to the owner and he is a older guy who does not really know what it is or how it works. I explained it to him and he was not against it but he likes to use his realtor on all deals which is understandable. Idk if I am thinking of this in the wrong manner but I should try to avoid dealing with his realtor because they might not make any money if I use owner financing right ? Or I am thinking of it wrong so just speak with his realtor .

your downpayment would need to at least cover the broker's fee. You never know: that broker may find you further deals.
