Real Estate

It’s going to be hard but I want to find someone who will do owner financing with me for a short number of years. Is there any way to find homes that are listed and VACANT but not in foreclosure??

I figure if the home is vacant, they are likely making a payment of some kind and losing money, and not wanting it to sit vacant for long. I would like it to be an older home that way its more of a fixer upper and the seller would be more willing to negotiate

Any ideas are welcome and suggested. Thank you.

Your best bet is to speak to a Realtor. They are usually aware of certain properties that offer seller financing before anyone else. You could also approach FISBO’s (for sale by owner). Just beware that "rent to own" is a scam 99.5% of the time. Good Luck!

   Talk to a Realtor in your area. They’ll know what homes are vacant.

   Finding listed homes for sale is easy. Finding a seller that will finance you is not. What’s wrong with a normal mortgage loan?

   I would go thru a licensed realtor. Ads may have homes that have leans, etc., but a realtor has to give you all the answers and facts.
