All businesses listed for sale here have indicated that the selling business owner is open to financing some amount of the purchase price.
Owner financing is becoming increasingly common among business owners looking to sell their business. Commonly referred to as seller financing, offering to include some amount of the sale price as installment payments with some interest added typically allows business owners to sell at a higher price. Buyers often struggle to raise the financing necessary to meet business owners asking prices, and so seller financing often bridges that gap. Additionally, SBA lenders are more inclined to finance a business acquisition that includes some financing by the business seller, as it shows confidence in the business, and alleviates some risk.

How Much Can Be Financed by the Business Owner?
There is no limit to how much of the acquisition price can be financed by out-going ownership, but typically owner's (and any lenders involved) want the buyer to have skin in the game. Most often, sellers will finance 10-25% of the acquisition price, with the rest covered by cash from the buyer, and an acquisition loan.
Less often, the owner will finance up to 50% of the price, but that tends to be about the upper limit beyond exceptional special cases.
Social media "influencers" like to peddle the idea of buying a business with nothing down and the entire purchase price financed by the seller, but that type of deal rarely happens. When it does, there are special circumstances, or the business owner cannot otherwise sell the business.
