After 2 to 3 years, depending on where interest rates may be then, my partner and I can then look at refi opportunities and at that point, hopefully the property has appreciated somewhat, such that we can then pull out (a. the private loan, b. the downpayment we both put in and c. plus a little bit of capital gains)....

To gain that experience, I could go to a 3-day training session for $3000.

If you sell your 1,000 shares you stand to have a gain of a little over $15,000!

This is a great way for inexperienced borrowers to gain knowledge and skills while also getting access to financing.

My lowest value gain property has done $2700/month value gain over its hold.

I'd keep my SEO investment going so I keep my ranking and gain new rankings.

I've recently been investigating what to do with my duplex that has appreciated significantly and the potential capital gains.

Sold for a gain Lessons learned?

If you gain interest on the deposit, then you must pay that interest out to the tenant each year which adds to complexity and workload.Any bank should work.

When the capital gains are added on both notes purchased at discount and paid off at full face value, and real property appreciation, I obtain my 20% goal, on a very passive participation basis.
