What seller financing examples have you accomplished?
I am looking into doing a first deal utilizing seller financing. What are some of the examples/terms that you have had in some of your deals? Any tips or ways you would have improved the deal? Thank you!

My first property purchased in 2015 selling price was $155k. Appraisal came in at $131k
Instead of dropping the deal owner agreed to owner finance $25k ... 30yrs amortization With a 5yr ballon.
Payments approx $150/mo
I put down 5% on a conventional loan for the remainder. Only $6,500
Fast forward to 2019 property is worth $200k , rents for $1775/mo. I can refinance to pay owner or sell in 2020. I’ll be selling the property to invest in other deals.
