What are the benefits of seller financing?

Seller financing offers tax breaks for sellers and alternative financing for buyers who can't qualify for conventional loans.
If you are a seller, the risks you face are the same as those facing any lender: Is the borrower a good credit risk? Will the El Paso, TX property hold enough value over time to allow for the repayment of all loans made against it?
You should run a full credit check on the borrower, require hazard insurance on the property and include a due-on-sale clause. There also are financing, disclosure and repayment-term requirements that need to be met. It is wise to consult a lawyer when putting together this kind of transaction.
