When they ask for more you then hit your final number.You never go above your predetermined set price and you never care what they need to make a deal work.

As you sell off lots the loan will be paid down on a lender predetermined percentage basis and will be released from the collateral.

Now, this is a part-time job, so I have to chance of getting a traditional loan, but I have a few people in my department that are willing to invest with me on deals if I show them that it is a good one.Here is my question, is there a way that I can take their hard cash and giving them a sort of IOU with a predetermined share of the profits of the sale or cash flow from the purchased property?

The loan officer won't be able to be predetermine and estimate who you hire and the cost for the architect.I would call your loan officer and be crystal clear to fix the situation. 

Leases are usually flat (no increases) and for a period of 5 years, with two 5-year options to renew at a predetermined amount. 

The remaining cash flow or any profits from a planned sale would be split amongst the investors and you and your partner in a pre-determined split.

My initial thought was that the way this deal could be worth it (aside from experience) on my end would be to pay back investor after a predetermined period (3-5 years) and holding onto the property.

Tax implications would be a big factor, as would the predetermined buyout(or methodology for calculating future buyout amount), but the big factor would be their desire to max out profits weighted against their desired quality of life.But those deals are almost always a result of being observant at the right place and time.

Generally military families (E-7 and above) are great renters as you have the option to call their chain of command if they are giving you trouble and the military already provides a predetermined housing allowance.
