Most people would probably be surprised to know how seller financing in 1031 exchanges can work. A seller wants to do a 1031 exchange, but they end up with a buyer asking for owner financing. Do they have to reject the offer? Not necessarily. If structured properly, a note can be created (giving the buyer what they need) and then sold, giving the seller the cash they need for their upleg. In this month's Property & Paper Live, I break down exactly how seller financing in 1031 exchanges works in the real world — plus the pitfalls, timeline traps, and creative strategies that experienced investors use to pull these deals together smoothly.

If you ever plan on selling a rental property (which you probably should), listen to this Rookie Reply. Halloween is over, but we've got two real estate investing stories that would make any investor's skin crawl. First, a buyer is delaying closing longer and longer, coming up with excuses, lying to the seller, and wants more time. But…they're your only offer, and it's getting close to the winter slow season. What do you do? Next, a seller financing deal gone wrong (in every single way). Your buyer stops paying you, starts renting your house out, takes the money, and, get this, moves into your basement…now they're squatting. What do you do to get them out and finally reclaim your property?  Lastly, we're ending on a lighter note. Should landlords ever include appliances like washers and dryers in their rentals? Ashley's answer goes against the grain, but her reasoning is rock solid!  Looking to invest? Need answers? Ask your question here! In This Episode We Cover How to force a flaky buyer to either close or stop wasting your time  Seller financing vs. subject to, and the big difference when you're the seller How to get a squatter out of your property for good  The appliances you should (and should not) include in your rental property  And So Much More!

Send us a textYou know that feeling when money seems like this big, mysterious force that other people understand but you somehow missed the memo? That was my guest, Mel Dorman, author, real estate investor, and self-described financial activist, who went from living in the slums of Kolkata to building a seven-million-dollar real estate portfolio. Wild, right?But this isn't one of those “grind harder” stories. Mel started out as a social worker who believed that being broke meant being good. They actually practiced what they called financial celibacy, opting out of capitalism on moral grounds until life smacked them with a wake-up call. When their dad got sick and needed $7,000 a month in care, Mel realized that staying small and “pure” wasn't helping anyone. That moment flipped everything.Mel learned that money isn't dirty; it's neutral. And when you use it consciously, it can create freedom for everyone. We talk about how they built financial literacy from scratch, started investing through a strategy called seller financing (basically, cutting out the banks and keeping money circulating in the community), and why the real transformation wasn't in the dollars; it was in the mindset.Even if you never want to touch real estate, you'll get so much out of this conversation. Because this is really about power, purpose, and possibility. It's about rewriting the story that money is evil and learning to see it as a tool for impact. And yes, there's some woo-woo in there too.Grab your earbuds and get ready to feel a whole lot more empowered about your financial future.What's Inside:How Mel went from social worker to millionaire investor using seller financingWhy rejecting money doesn't make you moral; it keeps you smallThe mindset shift that turned financial guilt into empowermentReal examples of creating wealth that benefits your whole communityWhat does “riching” right look like to you? Is it buying the most expensive bag—or being so financially free you can give away more money than you keep? Changing the world while changing your own life? Look, that could be you.If this conversation got you thinking differently about what wealth really means, come tell me about it on Instagram. I'd love to hear what “financial freedom” looks like for you.Mentioned in This Episode:Mel DormanBank on Your NeighborKiva.orgOonagh Duncan on InstagramFit Feels GoodLeave me a voice note on Speak Pipe!

Mark Monroe—30-year investor and author of Creative Real Estate Investing—joins Dan to unpack the real mechanics of seller financing: when to use wraps vs. lease options, why performance deeds can backfire, and how to keep Subject-To ethical (and legal). Mark shares how he sources true win-win deals (including hospice-driven leads), structures low- or zero-down offers, and automates collections with servicers and VAs. They also dig into predatory tactics used by some investors, Dodd-Frank/S.A.F.E./RESPA realities for owner-occupants, and why compliance and underwriting protect both the borrower and your business.   Connect with Mark: https://mark-monroe.com/ Join Mark's 180K+ member Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/395240491763831 Want to create your own seller-financed notes?

Join The Creative Finance Playbook Coaching Program & Learn Directly from Jenn & Joe:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://creativefinanceplaybook.com/wait-list?utm_source=zoom&utm_campaign=wlist⁠⁠In this episode of the Creative Finance Playbook Podcast, Jenn & Joe Della Fave sit down with Caleb (Creative TC) to unpack the RIGHT way to do creative finance deals like subject-to, seller financing, wraps, and rent-to-own—ethically, legally, and profitably.If you've ever wondered:Can I really take over someone's mortgage (subject-to) without getting burned?How do I avoid the due-on-sale clause?What's the difference between seller financing, wraps, and rent-to-own?What paperwork do I actually need to stay compliant?…then this is your playbook.What You'll Learn in This Episode:

This was a fun chat with someone I met through another coaching group for entrprenuers. Erin and I can appreciate each others' sense of humor... and being able to laugh is high value! We got caught here in the beginning laughing over Charmander... anyone have kids that used to play Pokemon?? We discuss the challenges and opportunities surrounding homeownership in today's market, specifically focusing on owner financing as a powerful, yet often overlooked strategy. The conversation addresses the difficulties faced by younger generations in buying homes due to soaring prices and high-interest rates, and how traditional bank financing may no longer be the only or best option. Instead, owner financing—where the seller acts as the lender—can unlock trillions in home equity held mostly by baby boomers, creating a win-win scenario for both sellers and buyers. We cover how government policies and monetary interventions during and after COVID-19 have distorted housing markets, driving up prices and making homeownership inaccessible for many. They emphasize that many boomers own homes free and clear, holding substantial equity that can be leveraged through owner financing to provide flexible, lower-interest loans to younger buyers. This method bypasses traditional bank loans, reduces transaction costs, and can offer better terms for both parties. The discussion also dives into practical advice on how to approach owner financing deals, including how buyers can find sellers willing to finance, the importance of having at least a 10% down payment, and how owner financing documents work similarly to bank loans but without the middleman. The conversation highlights the tax advantages and income stability for sellers who carry the loan, and the benefit to buyers who can secure better interest rates and terms. The value of fostering personal relationships and trust between parties is stressed, along with the need for proper legal guidance. They also touch on common misconceptions about owner financing, the risks of poorly structured notes, and the secondary market for selling these loans. The interview concludes with encouragement for people to explore owner financing as a strategic alternative to conventional home buying, especially amid current market volatility and economic uncertainty, offering hope and actionable insights for those feeling priced out or stuck.

Discover three powerful creative financing strategies that beginners are using right now to break into multifamily real estate.You'll learn:How to control a property with a Master Lease Agreement—no sale, no bank, full cash flow.How to close a deal with a Seller Carry First Mortgage—when the seller becomes your lender.How to fill the down payment gap with a Seller Carry Second Mortgage—when the bank's involved but you're short on cash.

In this comprehensive discussion led by Dawn Rickabaugh, a seasoned seller finance expert and owner of NoteQueen.com, the multifaceted benefits and strategies of using owner financing in real estate transactions are explored in depth. Dawn emphasizes the critical interplay between "property and paper," referring to the tangible real estate asset and the financial instruments (notes) that represent debt secured by that property. The conversation covers practical insights for buyers, sellers, and real estate professionals on how seller financing can serve as a powerful alternative or complement to traditional bank financing, especially in challenging market conditions where conventional loans may be difficult to obtain. Dawn highlights the growing importance of owner financing amid tightening credit markets, rising interest rates, and shifting real estate dynamics in various U.S. regions and Canada. She explains how owner financing not only opens doors for buyers with substantial down payments but limited access to bank loans, but also creates unique opportunities for sellers to maximize their property's value by offering flexible, attractive financing terms. The discussion dives into the strategic advantages of owning and buying notes, including the ability to buy back one's own mortgage at a discount, negotiate terms directly with note holders, and benefit from the personal relationship between buyer and seller—advantages not available with traditional bank loans. Real-life examples and participant insights enrich the discussion, illustrating how owner financing can enable cash flow, tax benefits, and enhanced deal flexibility. The session also addresses common misconceptions, the importance of legal protections such as first rights of refusal and transferability clauses, and innovative approaches like rent-to-own conversions and master leases. The conversation culminates in practical advice for real estate agents to leverage these tools to rescue commissions and become indispensable dealmakers in a market where creative financing solutions are increasingly vital. Dawn announces forthcoming educational courses aimed at empowering buyers and investors to confidently use owner financing and notes as wealth-building vehicles. Overall, the session serves as both a primer and an advanced exploration of seller financing's potential to transform real estate investing and homeownership. ### Highlights   - [00:00:05]

In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Emanuel Stafilidis, founder and chief investment strategist at Capable Capital. Emanuel introduces listeners to the PASS system, which stands for Passive Affordable Seller-Financing System. With over 30 years of real estate experience, he has built a strategy around acquiring moderately priced homes, structuring seller-financed deals, and creating long-term, stable income streams for investors while helping buyers achieve homeownership. Emanuel explains why seller financing offers a compelling alternative to traditional rentals. By targeting homes under $100,000, often under $60,000, he creates opportunities for buyers who conventional lenders underserve. Seller financing not only provides affordability but also encourages buyers to take pride in their homes, reducing turnover and maintenance costs for investors. Emanuel and Jonathan discuss the importance of market selection, landlord-friendly states, and the stability of this approach compared to the variability of rental property management. Throughout the conversation, Emanuel shares his personal journey, including early struggles with money management, lessons learned from decades of investing, and the critical role mentorship played in his growth. He highlights how PASS benefits both investors and buyers, bridging the gap in markets where banks often refuse to lend on lower-priced properties. The episode also explores how Capable Capital provides options for direct property investment or fund participation, making this strategy accessible to both seasoned and passive investors. Tune in to hear how Emanuel's PASS framework is helping investors build wealth while opening doors to homeownership for families across the country. In this episode, you will hear: The PASS framework and how it generates true passive income Why moderately priced housing creates opportunities that traditional lenders ignore How seller financing reduces turnover and shifts maintenance responsibility to buyers The role of landlord-friendly states in supporting this investment model Emanuel's lessons on money management and the value of mentorship in real estate success How seller financing fills a market gap where banks won't lend on lower-priced homes The importance of building a strong network and mentorship to scale a real estate strategy Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

Beau went from flying Blackhawk helicopters in the Army to achieving financial independence in his 30s through a diversified investment strategy that goes way beyond basic index funds. Beau built wealth through real estate, and savvy use of military benefits while still crushing it in traditional markets.

Multiple streams of income that comfortably cover his lifestyle — all without tapping his retirement accounts.

Dan Haberhosk is the founder and CEO of Front Range Land and Mason McDonald Founder of Colorado Land Acquisition services and both of which are investment firms that focus on raw land investments. This runs the gamut of in fill plots of land in suburban areas, rural tracts, ranches, land development and much more. While Dan and Mason run their own independent investment firms, they co-own a lending company that specializes in lending on raw land. For that, I thought it would be fun to have them both join the show. Dan Haberkost https://danbercot.com Instagram: @danbercot Mason McDonald Instagram: @masonrmcdonald
