Hey Roc — even though this post is pretty old, here are a few tips for anyone looking at owner-financed deals:Think of the owner as the bank — your main goal is making sure the terms work for you, not just trying to get a super low interest rate.Structure matters: you’ll want a promissory note and a mortgage or deed of trust to protect both sides.Don’t be afraid to negotiate the purchase price — owner financing can give flexibility, so the seller might be willing to adjust if you explain your numbers clearly.Make sure you calculate cash flow including repairs, taxes, and insurance.

Most investors here adjust DD based on the property’s condition and competition.2️⃣ Your inspections still matter.Even though the seller doesn’t have to fix anything, a strong inspection report gives you evidence to renegotiate if the seller wants to keep the deal alive.Plenty of sellers agree to repairs or credits because losing the deal means re-listing and explaining those issues to the next buyer.3️⃣ You still get your earnest money back as long as you stay inside the DD window.So at least you’re not losing everything if you walk.4️⃣ And honestly the DD system filters out unserious buyers.Which is why sellers like it, and why North Carolina deals usually close smoother once DD is paid.I agree it's different, and it feels harsh at first, but once you start knowing how to play the DD game, you realize you still do have leverage just at different stages of the deal.Happy to break it down more or talk through your specific deal if you want.
