I’d like to hear from anyone who has participated in a balloon payment type financing deal.
For example, if I worked out an owner-financed contract for $150,000 purchase price:
10% down = $15,000
Balance plus 9% interest = $147,150
Amortized for 30 years = $408.75 per month
Balance (Balloon payment due in 5 years) = $122,625
Is this right? I would owe the owner that much out of pocket in 5 years???
