The traditional mortgage system isn't built for everyone.

You work hard. You have income. You're ready to own. But the bank keeps saying no — or asking for paperwork that takes months you don't have.

Bank denials

Credit a few points low, gig income, or a recent move — modern underwriting punishes real life.

Endless paperwork

45–60 days, 200+ pages, three rounds of "one more document." Meanwhile rates go up and listings disappear.

20% down or bust

Saving six figures while paying rent feels impossible. PMI, points, and origination fees just make it worse.

Watching others win

Friends keep buying. You keep renting and paying someone else's mortgage. It eats at you.

There's a better way

Skip the bank. Buy directly from the seller.

Seller financing means the homeowner becomes your lender. You agree on a down payment, a monthly payment, and an interest rate — and you sign a deed. No bank in the middle. No permission to ask.

No bank required

You and the seller agree on terms. A title company handles closing. The deed is yours — same as any sale.

Lower down payments

Most of our deals close at 5–15% down. You don't need to hand over your life savings.

Flexible terms

Interest rate, length, and payment are negotiable. Some sellers carry 5 years, some 30 — you pick what fits.

Fast close

Average 21 days from offer to keys. No underwriter, no rate-lock anxiety, no "one more doc."

Who we are

We built BuyHome9 because the system was failing good people.

BuyHome9 was started by a small team of investors and real-estate veterans who watched too many capable families get told "no" by banks for reasons that didn't reflect who they actually were.

We knew a different path existed — sellers carrying the financing themselves — but it was scattered, hard to find, and locked behind insider networks. We built the matching layer the public never had.

  • Buyer-first. We work for you, not lenders. We're paid by sellers when a deal closes.
  • Transparent. Every term is in writing. Every closing happens at a real title company.
  • No-pressure. Browse, ask, walk away. No salesperson is going to badger you.
  • Built for real life. Self-employed, recent immigrants, rebuilding credit, divorced — we've matched buyers in every situation.

I'd been denied by four lenders because I'm 1099. BuyHome9 matched me with a seller in Texas in two days. We closed in 17 days at 8% down. My credit didn't even come up.

I was about to give up on owning. The seller carried the loan at 7%, accepted 10% down, and the deed is in my name. My kid sleeps in his own room now. That's everything.

As an investor, the speed is the magic. Subject-to deal closed in 11 days. Tenants in place 30 days later. Try doing that with a bank.

Questions answered

Frequently asked

If you're new to seller financing, start here. Anything else, ask us.

What is seller financing?
Seller financing — also called owner financing — is when the seller of a home acts as the lender instead of a bank. You agree on a purchase price, down payment, interest rate, and payoff schedule. You sign a deed and a promissory note. You make monthly payments directly to the seller. There is no traditional mortgage and no bank in the middle.
Do I need good credit?
Often no. Sellers offering financing typically care more about your down payment, your income stability, and the story behind any past credit issues than your FICO score. We've helped buyers close with credit scores in the 500s — and plenty with no score at all because they had a thin credit file.
How is this different from rent-to-own?
Rent-to-own keeps the home in the seller's name; you're a tenant with an option. Seller financing transfers the deed to you at closing. You're the owner from day one. You build equity, you can deduct mortgage interest, and you can refinance or sell whenever you want.
What's a typical down payment?
Most of our seller-financed transactions close between 5% and 15% down. The exact number is negotiated with the seller and depends on credit, income, and the home's price.
What interest rates are typical?
Seller-financed rates currently range from about 6% to 9%, depending on the seller, the deal, and the down payment. Rates are negotiable — bigger down payments and stronger income usually buy a lower rate.
Can I refinance into a regular mortgage later?
Yes — and most buyers do. After 12–36 months of on-time payments, you've built credit history and equity, which usually qualifies you for a conventional mortgage at a lower rate. We can introduce you to lenders who specialize in this transition.
Are there hidden fees?
BuyHome9 is free for buyers — we're paid by the seller's side when a deal closes. You'll still pay normal closing costs (title, escrow, recording fees, typically 1–3% of price), but there's no bank origination fee, no PMI, and no points.
Is this legal in my state?
Yes. Seller financing is legal in all 50 U.S. states, though specific disclosure rules vary. We work with licensed title companies and attorneys in every market we cover, so your transaction follows local law.
How does BuyHome9 actually work?
Three steps. (1) Tell us where and what you want to buy — about 30 seconds on your phone. (2) We match you with seller-financed homes in our network that fit your budget, location, and timeline. (3) We connect you with the seller and a closing partner so you can negotiate, inspect, and close. Free for buyers, no obligation, cancel anytime.
