Why You NEED 10 Years For Seller Financing

Seller-financed notes should have at least a ten-year term because real estate values have never declined over a full decade. Longer terms protect you by letting property appreciation work in your favor.

Make sure that you're trying to push for your seller finance notes to be at least 10 years long. That doesn't mean it's amortized over 10 years. That means the term before it is due is 10 years or more. The reason we want 10 years or more is there's no 10-year cycle where real estate has not gone up. I've never seen it. Typically they go up over decade-long periods. And so I like looking at that as just a standard 10 years or greater for your term.
