Seller Financing Terms I want to offer for a Lakefront Motel

Posted Nov 6 2022, 03:11

I am in the process of purchasing a motel, and i have a lot stacked against me in terms of coming up with 20-25% (I only have 15% liquid as of today) , rising interest rates, and cash reserves that may be needed in a commercial mortgage.  I am trying to liquidate some properties, but this will be the slowest selling season.   I want to approach the seller with terms for a short-term bridge interest only loan while i continue to raise capital, stabilize the motel (it is extremely underperforming) and hopeful for lower interest rates.   Would I be able to get feedback on the terms i would like to offer?  I want to make sure they are not offensive.  Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.

Purchase Price $ 549,000.00
Deposit (year 1) due 1/1/2023 $ 55,000.00
Deposit (year 2) due 1/1/2024 $ 55,000.00
Loan Term/Amort - 24 months/ 180 months - interest paid* $ 37,044.00

Total cash to seller by 1/1/2025 $ 586,044.00
