Seller financing terms refer to the conditions under which a seller agrees to provide financing to a buyer in order to facilitate a sale. These terms can vary depending on the agreement reached between the buyer and seller, but typically include details such as:

Interest Rate: The rate at which the seller will charge interest on the financing provided. This rate can be fixed or variable.
Down Payment: The initial payment made by the buyer to the seller at the time of purchase. A higher down payment may result in more favorable financing terms.
Loan Term: The length of time over which the buyer will repay the seller for the financing provided. This can range from a few years to several decades.
Amortization Schedule: The schedule outlining the repayment of the loan, including the amount of each payment and how much of it goes towards interest and principal.
Collateral: Any assets or property pledged by the buyer to secure the financing. This gives the seller recourse in case the buyer defaults on the loan.
Prepayment Penalties: Any fees or penalties imposed on the buyer if they pay off the loan before the agreed-upon term.
Balloon Payment: A large, final payment due at the end of the loan term. This is common in seller financing agreements with shorter terms.
These terms can be negotiated between the buyer and seller and are often documented in a promissory note or loan agreement. It's important for both parties to carefully consider and understand the terms of the agreement before proceeding with seller financing.
