The interest rate is nice, if there was a way to increase the cash flow to ~15% or greater COC you could pull a HELOC on the property for 9% and collect the delta.again though, i would suggest selling it and trying to lock up a property or two with the proceeds that required some sweat equity, force appreciation through a reno, rent it out, refinance and repeat (BRRRR)

The buyer got an affordable home in exchange for doing the repairs himself (sweat equity), I got a cashflowing note, and my private lender got a steady interest payment.
