Hello all, I signed up for the forum after checking it out yesterday and see that there are a lot of members who seem to have questions regarding seller financing. This is about 50% of my business so I thought I would start a thread to try and help to the best of my ability.

Please note: this is a subject that I have a lot of knowledge in, however, I am not an attorney and for concrete answers to anything you should consult a local attorney in your area.

Let me know what you guys need.

John
