Not Every Seller Carry Is a Stack

Tuesday, November 10

Not every seller carry is a stack. I hear the myth a lot. Seller financing works on any deal. A seller agrees to carry a note, the buyer moves in, and everyone wins. It sounds simple, and that is exactly why it gets people into trouble. A seller carry is a tool. A stack is a structure. They are n...


Read the Judgment First
