One of the biggest advantages for the seller is being able to customized the intake of taxable income.

@Alecia Loveless I made 500 seller financing offers to listing agents and not one of them presented it to their seller.However, 30% of sellers are willing to finance some or all of their equity.If you want seller financing there's only one thing you need to do: Talk to the seller yourself.I don't make seller financed offers to sellers.

Even though a list may appear highly motivated, like probates, you still need to touch a high number of sellers to generate enough leads to get a property under contract.

OP is asking about seller financing here, not sub2, and my reply was about seller financing, not Sub2.

If the Seller doesn't have the funds/desire to do so, then you will. 

@Kyle HendricksNo - my priority on a seller finance deal is putting as little down as possible.  

I have two stories of sellers that got out of difficult situations and think it's a huge benefit for everyone else to know about it!

Currently pulling lists from PropStream and door-knocking for pre-foreclosure/high-equity deals, but I'm looking to scale with inbound leads to save time.Came across Real Estate Bees for their pay-per-lead model—motivated seller leads, geo-targeted to the Triad, supposedly high-intent from SEO/PPC ads (not cold lists).

For private seller finance lenders, how do you track the payments and loan amount? 

Low inventory, inbound migration from higher-cost metros, and cheap financing created the perfect storm: sellers held all the leverage, buyers fought over anything that had a roof, and investors—especially those trying to scale—had to move fast or lose out.But over the past 12 months, something interesting has been happening under the surface: the market is easing.
