Owner Financing
Defined by Onias Derilus, Mortgage Capital · NMLS# 1859012 · Florida licensed mortgage broker
Owner financing is a sale in which the seller extends credit to the buyer directly, instead of a bank or mortgage lender.
What Owner Financing means
The buyer pays the seller per a promissory note and mortgage. It suits unique properties or buyers who can't get traditional financing, often at negotiated terms.
Florida example
A Florida seller of a rural property offers owner financing to a buyer who can't qualify conventionally, taking monthly payments at an agreed rate with a balloon due in a few years.
What it is
Owner financing is when the seller acts as the lender and you pay them directly. It skips the traditional bank loan.
The terms are set in a private agreement between you and the seller.
When it helps
Owner financing can work for buyers who need flexible terms or face credit hurdles. The details must be spelled out carefully.
