Owner will Finance

  What are the pitfalls of buying /owner/builder will carry loan?
 
  I don't know of any pitfalls, but I'd have my own lawyer look over any mortgage document I signed.  Make sure you don't have any prepayment penalties, thta you have a grace period before late charges would accrue, and that if you get an adjustable mortgage, you understand what can and will happen to your interest rate.
