Home guide to owner financing Minnesota
What is a contract for deed and how does it work?
The seller of real property provides the buyer financing in the purchase, and the buyer repays the resulting loan in installments.
Under a land contract, the seller retains the legal title to the property, while permitting the buyer to take possession of it for most purposes other than legal ownership.
The sale price is typically paid in periodic installments, often with a balloon payment at the end to make the time length of payments shorter than in the corresponding fully amortized loan (i.e., a loan without a final balloon payment).
When the full purchase price has been paid including any interest, the seller is obligated to convey (to the buyer) legal title to the property.
An initial down payment from the buyer to the seller is usually also required.
How Much down do I need for a contract for deed Home?
You can expect to put down 10% of sale price agreed upon of the property. Sometimes the seller or investor will want 15% to 20%. All terms are negotiable but the investors typically wont budge too much on the cd terms.
