How can I structure this Brrrr?

[Peter J Marshall]

Hey guys,

I have a deal I am trying to process. The property is in distress, and I have the funds and skill set to rehab. My question is , how can I structure the deal to pay the owner at the refinance point for their asking price? While maintaining legal protection on the funds I put into the rehab? I do not want to put money and time into the rehab without legal documents/ agreement outlining the deal? Please help!?!?

I am very grateful for any help in the matter
