If the seller is willing, you are seller financed if the bank falls through. However, you shoulder HUGE risk if the business fails to produce enough income. I would advise any client against CD ( which really is limited to real estate anyway)vs. standard Asset Purchase Agreement.

This is definitely a time when you want to get complete legal advice BEFORE you sign on for the deal.
