What Is Owner Financing?
A Smarter Path to Homeownership
Owner financing — also called seller financing — is an arrangement where the seller of a property acts as the lender. Instead of getting a mortgage from a bank, you make monthly payments directly to us.
This makes homeownership accessible to buyers who may not qualify for traditional bank loans, are self-employed, have had past credit challenges, or simply want a faster, simpler purchase process.
Since 2016, House Sold Easy has helped hundreds of buyers get into homes through our flexible owner financing program.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Still have questions? Call us anytime at 636-525-1566 — we're available 24/7.
Do I actually own the home, or am I just renting it?
With our owner financing program, the title transfers to you at closing — just like a traditional purchase. You are the legal owner of the home from day one. You are not renting. You build equity with every payment you make.
What happens if I can't make a payment?
We strongly encourage buyers to contact us immediately if they anticipate payment difficulties. Because we work directly with you — not through a bank — we have more flexibility to work through hardships. We'll always try to find a solution before any formal action is considered.
Can I refinance into a traditional mortgage later?
Yes — and many of our buyers do exactly that. Owner financing is a great stepping stone. Once you've made consistent payments and rebuilt your credit profile, you can refinance with a traditional lender to potentially get a lower rate. There are no prepayment penalties on our loans.
Is owner financing legal in Missouri?
Absolutely. Owner financing is a fully legal and widely used real estate practice in Missouri. All transactions are processed through a licensed Missouri title company, and you receive proper legal documentation including a promissory note and deed of trust, just as you would with a traditional mortgage.
What areas do you offer owner financed homes in?
We have owner finance properties available across the Greater St. Louis metro area, including St. Louis City, St. Louis County, St. Charles County, Jefferson County, and surrounding communities. Call us to find out what's currently available in your preferred area.
How is the interest rate determined?
Rates are set based on the down payment amount, the property, your overall financial situation, and current market conditions. We're transparent about how we arrive at the rate and will walk you through it in detail before you commit to anything.
