What’s the procedure when a buyer defaults on a land contract (commercial property) in the state of Wisconsin?

This land contract is on a commercial piece of property (not yet operational business) and it required a balloon payment. I would like to keep this as civil as possible and not incur large legal fees. But the buyer will not respond to my phone calls and is two months late with the final payment, What is the procedure to regain possession of the property? The property is in Wisconsin.

Is buying a house through a land contract a good idea?

My husband and I found a small house and we absolutely fell in love with it. We work together and make $52,000 a year. The house we’re looking at only costs $75,000. The problem is that we only have 5% to put down and we don’t have enough established credit to get a loan (we’re only 22 and have only had credit cards for 3 years). The owners are willing to do a land contract – is this a good idea?

How to figure principal and interest for a land contract?

Im selling a house on a land contract. The payment is 250 per month for 5 years at 7%. Total principal is 24,000. Baloon payment after 5 years to pay off balance. Buyer makes irregular payments so tracking interest is difficult. I cant find a program to do what i need it to do. The contract says the ballon payment will be 17,761.72 so do I assume that that figure is a constant or can it be adjusted? Im lost after 10 months. I know he is behind on payments but dont know the amount that will catch him up.

What are your thoughts on a land contract?

A reliable close friend of the family (close enough to actually be a member) is interested in a land contract with my home.

They were not approved for the full amount to purchase so we offered a land contract.
They just don’t have enough credit established.

I have never been in this situation before. I trust them, I just wanted to hear someone else’s experiences or thoughts on this.

Thanks! :)
They are close, but I don’t see them very often. Believe me, as with anyone they would be evicted and taken to court… A deal is a deal. So I’m not all that concerned about the way the family feels. :)

Who pays taxes when purchasing real estate through a land contract?

I am going to be purchasing a condo on Land Contract. We have everything negotiated so far except for who will be paying the taxes. Is it generally either the buyer or the seller, or is it completely determined by negotiating? Thanks!
