Sorry I meant that in reply to I Love Bama.

Just wanted to know some more information because, as you know, huge tax implications being a dealer vs an investor.

i don't disagree, but if he does not feel that what he is doing is right, then he should not do it.

I certainly would sell my house above market value if possible.

The biggest thing I see which may not bother you is that you are likely to end up with the house again somewhere down the road. He's buying a house he can't sell because it's woth far less than he paid. My guess is that he won't have the means or inclination to write a fat check to get out of the house.

An autograph from Mark Ingram is worthless to me yet to some Bama fan in the sticks it's priceless. How is that different?

Are you in the Huntsville area? If so, what kind of monthly rent are you getting?

This. I know someone that does owner financing on a few properties, and within 3-4 years on every single purchaser, he's foreclosing the house.
