    Any advice on offer would be appreciated. We are selling a duplex for around 580k of which we have around 80% equity and it is our principal place of residence. We have bought elsewhere a renovater and borrowed 100%. The plan was to dump our money on the new place once we sold our existing place. However, we have had an enquiry from a buyer interested in Vendor Finance with 50% upfront. Is it worth pursuing?? What do you think???

    This means that you are going to have to lend them the other 50%. Whether it is worth pursuing or not will depend on many other factors such as:
    – how soon you need the other 50%
    – The price they have offered (should be more for the trouble)
    – The security for your 50% – eg second mortgage.
    – The interest they will pay you for borrowing your money, and the terms – ie how long, PI or IO etc.

    So it may be an option, but then again you may be able to find someone able to pay full price straight away.
