Many sellers are actually turning to In-House financing in order to get their properties sold at full value.
In-House financing is when the seller actually finances part of the loan for the buyers. This is typically ideal for buyers who are having problems acquiring a loan through a bank due to being self employed or past credit history.

You should do a credit check with all three credit-reporting bureaus and obtain your buyer's FICO score from Myfico.com.

The letter protects you against any problems with the settlement attorney.
At settlement, make sure you obtain a lender's policy of title insurance at your buyer's expense. Finally, have the buyer pay all credit report and closing costs, including the expense of having the promissory note and deed of trust prepared and the deed of trust recorded.
