Hello all,
I have a question for some of our legal beagles and frequent property purchasers/sellers.
I have communicated my interest in a vacant piece of land and the owner has written me back saying he would be interested in letting it go as he is out of state and doesn't get up here anymore. We are super excited as this is our survivial Valhalla we've dreamed about forever. We haven't come to a price yet, but we have a seasoned note (has paid for over 12 months on time) and has the value of the property we are looking at left on the note and then some I think.
Without getting too personal in our financial situation, we have no debt, but no credit either. No mortgage etc. We would like to put 1/4 of the presumed price down and make payments, or sign over the note. Does anyone know how we would do this legally or to present it in a way to put the seller at ease?
We will most likely be able to pay the entire purchase price this year, we just need a little wiggle room. Should we get an escrow account?
Any info is greatly appreciated! This is the perfect place to build our off-grid home in AK and if we get it, I'll make sure to post pics and updates on how we plunk ourselves into the wilderness and make a go of it.
