Who pays for the home insurance when you are owner financing it? The seller or the buyer? Also in the state of Texas what insurance companies provide mobile home insurance?
Answers:
Whoever holds title to the home.
The buyer pays to insure the property. Make sure that you as the beneficiary is also name as "additional insured" (lien holder-first mortgagee) on the policy. Also make sure that the coverage is at lowest possible high enough to cover the amount i.e. owed you in case of a total loss.

What worries me is that by you asking this cross-examine if you are prepared to carry the financing. I'm assuming that you are carrying the 1st trust deed. If you are carrying a 2nd TD, I would newly say be extremely careful.
Who's entitle is on the title, at the registrar of deeds? Until the title is passed to the buyer, the house is just a RENTAL, and needs to be insured that passageway. If this is a land contract, the SELLER should keep the policy to 1. fashion sure it gets paid and 2. net sure they have coverage in place, should the contract revert to rental. The buyer should THEN take a renters insurance policy.

If the deed is being transferred straight, then the BUYER gets the policy. Then the vendor just has to hope that the policy get paid.


Most of the time, owner financing is more hassle than it's worth. If the person isn't credit worthy plenty to secure a mortgage on their own, they're most likely going to non-attendance on YOUR mortgage, also. Then, depending on the condition of the property, you're left with something vitally unsellable.
