This looks like an ideal cancidate for a highest bidder sale for the highest down payment with seller financing.
You could conduct the highest bidder sale with the agreement that you get all of the down payment over $5000.
You should be able to get $17,000 total… maybe more. So that would put $12,000 in your pocket. Or you could give $2000 to the owner
then put $10,000 in your pocket. or split the downpayment with the owner.
Or you could stay in the deal and get cash flow too. That is what I’d do so I can protect the buyer and the seller. You don’t want a buyer who makes payment to the seller then the seller pockets the money without making the mortgage payments ( which he has already proven he wil do). Better if you stay in the deal for $250 – $350 a month cash flow.
