You can sell with this method to them…but the repercussions are that the lender, at it’s option, and if it discovers the contract, can call the loan due.

This risk can be mitigated. Take a look at the “How To Articles” written by Bill Bronchick regarding the due on sale clause.

By the way, this buyer has close to 25% down. There are alot of “non-conforming” loan programs out there which will accomodate people with credit or other issues with this amount down. Have you checked the buyer out? What problems does he have?

I have buyers for my house. The bal on the mortgage is 38000
and the buyers have 12000 to put down total price 50000.

However i have a due on sale clause on the property. Can i sell this to them on contract for deed and what are the possible repercussions?

They are unable to get conventional financing at this time. Thanks Larry
