Hi everyone,
I am hoping someone can give me advice about Vendor Finance Options. I have a DA Approved Development Site in Brisbane that I want to sell.
I have owned this site for many years and don't have much of a mortgage left on it ($80K).
I have had a few builders/developers want to buy it but it always seems to fall down because they are unable to finance both the cost of the land and the build (apparently the banks are tight on lending on development sites at the moment or so I'm told). Or it might be because as development sites go it is a small scale development site (607sqm) so only smaller developers are trying to buy it so that may be the problem. The real estate agent wants to do a joint venture but I'm really not interested in doing that with someone I don't personally know.
So I was wondering if I should go down the path of offering Vendor Finance for the purchase price of the land. I am in no rush to sell as I don't need the money straight away so I would have no problem waiting up to 2 years for the purchaser to pay me out the balance of the purchase price of the site once the development is built.
Is there any real risk to me offering the site with Vendor Finance? Do you think this would be a good option for me (the vendor) since I am in no rush to sell?
Also can anyone recommend a lawyer in Brisbane that specialises in Vendor Finance in Brisbane.
Thanks in advance.
Renae.
