I have a home that I've been renting /leasing to the same family for the last 10 years. This was my 1st land contract. The home is in Indiana and I've been in Ohio for the past 7+ yrs. They signed a 10 year lease. I don't even think that long of a land contract is legal and I have no idea why I made a 10 year lease. The lease is about to expire and they are unable to obtain financing to purchase it.
As I draft another land contract, is it typical to ask for another deposit? The initial deposit - 10 yrs ago was about 5% of what the cost to purchase the home was. What's the rule of thumb for the monthly increase for this next contract? Also, this contract expires 10/1/14. Any advice or questions are definitely appreciated. Thanks.
@SteveO and @CashFlowDepot and any others - thoughts? Thanks.
