Hi Daryl…
Also would like to know more about this question. Have seen quite a few houses I might like to offer a L/O type transaction except for the fact that the house is being sold through a real estate agent. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.

While there are many opportunities to work with motivated sellers through FSBOs, etc., there are more properties listed with realtors.
How do you take care of the “whats in it for me” for the realtor when offering a L/O? How do you all bring it up. As part of the “standard form” many realtors use, the topic of seller financing is asked at the time of listing. While initially most sellers say no, I bet that some would have a change of heart given a good explanation and offer. Does anyone want to share how they have done it?

Thanks

P.S. Thanks to Jim-WI for your suggestions
