FAQ
Madison owner financing questions.
- How does owner financing work in Madison, Mississippi?
- Seller acts as the bank: you sign a promissory note and either a deed of trust or land contract, depending on Mississippi norms. Monthly payments go to the seller.
- What down payment do Madison sellers usually require?
- Most owner-financed listings ask 10-20% down. Higher down often unlocks better interest and term.
- Can I refinance later?
- Yes. Most buyers refinance into a conventional loan within 2-5 years once income or credit qualifies.
- Is there a credit check?
- Sellers may ask for proof of income and a credit pull, but standards are far more flexible than a bank's.

Glossary
Key terms for owner financing in Madison.
- Promissory note
- The IOU between you and the Madison seller. Spells out the loan amount, interest rate, payment schedule, and what happens if you miss a payment.
- Deed of trust / mortgage
- The lien recorded against the property that secures the promissory note. In Mississippi, most owner-finance deals use the same instrument banks use, so you actually own the home at closing.
- Balloon payment
- A lump sum owed at the end of a shorter term (commonly 3–7 years). Most owner-finance buyers refinance into a conventional loan before the balloon hits.
- Option fee (rent-to-own)
- Non-refundable up-front payment that locks in your right to buy at a set price later. Typically 1–5% of purchase price and credited toward the purchase if you exercise.
