Trying to understand private/hard money lending terms

[Samuel Lynch]

Good day all. I am trying to understand how a deal could look in terms of private/hard money lending. I understand the sources but I do not understand how an example deals' structure could look for a buy and hold investment. I understand conventional loans and such, just having trouble understanding terms with private money.

I tried researching the topic but only found what private lending is and the sources. I am looking to try to understand what an actual deal could look like. 

Can one of you give me a very basic example or a previous deal you may have made so I can get out of this researchers block I have going on?

I don't know if I am asking the right question with this so some guidance would be much appreciated. 

I am asking this to add knowledge to my toolbox because this is one knowledge area I am completely lost at.
