Key points
Reduced bureaucracy for owners selling homes with their own financing (up to 24 transactions per year).
Increased opportunity for home purchase for those without access to bank loans.
Requirement for the owner to ensure the buyer's ability to repay the loan.
Study on the impact of owner financing on the housing market and wealth creation.
