How Owner Financing Works

You buy the home directly from us. No bank.

Owner financing means we (Vlancia Home Buyers) act as the lender directly instead of going through a bank. You put $17,000 down, then make monthly payments directly to us — the same way you would to a mortgage company. You own the home from day one with title in your name.

No credit check. No bank approval. No underwriting process. You can refinance into a traditional mortgage anytime with no penalty, or pay it off early.

The terms on this home: the loan is amortized over 40 years with no balloon payment. Most owner-financed deals you'll see have a 5- to 7-year balloon — meaning you'd have to refinance or sell by then. Ours doesn't.

Your $2,494/month payment includes principal, interest, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and a $50 servicing fee. One bundled payment, the same way an escrowed traditional mortgage works. Full breakdown provided with your offer.

Common Questions

How does owner financing work?
Owner financing means Vlancia Home Buyers acts as the lender directly instead of going through a bank. You put $17,000 down, then make monthly payments directly to us — the same way you would to a mortgage company. You own the home from day one with title in your name. No credit check, no bank approval, no underwriting process. You can refinance into a traditional mortgage anytime with no penalty, or pay it off early.
What credit or income do I need?
There is no credit check and no bank-style underwriting. We do verify that the monthly payment fits your budget — typically we want to see that the payment is no more than about a third of your gross monthly income. Bring proof of income (recent pay stubs, bank statements, or tax returns if self-employed) and we can usually confirm fit on a quick call.
Is the price or down payment negotiable?
The terms we publish are what we offer. We are not haggling on price or down payment, but we are happy to discuss flexible structures on the monthly side if your situation calls for it. Message us about your situation and we'll be straightforward about what is and isn't possible.
How long is the loan term?
The loan is amortized over 40 years with no balloon payment. Most owner-financed deals you'll see in Georgia have a 5- to 7-year balloon, meaning you'd have to refinance or sell by then. Ours doesn't. You can keep the loan in place for the full term, refinance into a traditional mortgage whenever you're ready, or pay it off early — all with no penalty.
Are property taxes and insurance included in the monthly payment?
Yes. The $2,494 monthly payment includes principal, interest, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and a $50 servicing fee. You don't need to handle the tax or insurance bill separately — it's bundled, the same way an escrowed traditional mortgage works.
Can I refinance later?
Yes, anytime, with no prepayment penalty. Many buyers use owner financing as a bridge — they buy the home now, build payment history for 12 to 24 months, then refinance into a traditional mortgage at a bank rate once their credit or income situation is in better shape.
What happens if I miss a payment?
We treat this the same way a bank would: there's a grace period and a late fee structure spelled out in the loan documents. Communication matters — if life happens, talk to us early and we'll work with you. We're not looking to take homes back; we're looking for buyers who can sustain the payment long-term.
When can I see the home?
The home is currently tenant occupied, so showings are by appointment with 24–48 hours of advance notice to coordinate with the tenant. Message us on Messenger to request a showing time and we'll get back to you with available windows.
What's the condition of the roof and HVAC?
Honest answer: the roof, HVAC, furnace, AC, and water heater are all original to the home (built 2005). All systems are in working order with no active issues, leaks, or reported problems. The home has been well cared for and is in clean, turnkey condition. You're welcome to bring an inspector during your due diligence.
