Where there is a will....there is usually a way to make it happen !
Most likely, the answer is yes. There are several avenues we can recommend to assist the buyer with financing the purchase. It will probably take a combination of the following:
1. Get a SBA loan. This is a government backed loan that will lend up to 80% of the purchase price, providing the buyer has other assets to use for collateral.
2. Use your 401K or IRA without penalty.
3. Owner finance part of the purchase, if the seller agrees.
3. The buyer can pay cash. Yes, occasionally it happens.
