A Few Things People Ask
What does seller financing actually mean?+
Instead of borrowing from a bank, you make payments directly to the person selling the home. They agree to a purchase price, a down payment, and a monthly amount, and you pay them over time until the balance is settled.
Will I need mortgage approval from a bank?+
No. Because the seller is financing the sale themselves, there's no bank underwriting to wait on, which usually means a quicker path from offer to move-in.
Is there a minimum credit score?+
There's no single cutoff. Terms are set by each individual seller, and we help match buyers with homes and arrangements that make sense for their situation.
How big is the down payment, typically?+
It varies home to home and is listed on each property. Because sellers set their own terms, down payments here tend to be more flexible than what a conventional lender would require.
Which markets do you currently cover?+
Right now we list homes in Illinois, Alabama, Ohio, Missouri, and South Carolina, with new properties added on a rolling basis.
