How Tiered Returns Can Help Structure Private Lending DealsHey BP community,I wanted to share some insights on structuring private lending deals, particularly when working with private investors to fund real estate projects.

Are there any questions you'd suggest asking to better understand this loan structure and its potential limitations?

You could structure a low down payment with interest-only payments for a set period, then refinance later.Master Lease with Option to Buy – Control the property now, generate cash flow by leasing it, then buy once it's stabilized.Sub-To or Wrap Mortgage – If there’s existing debt, you might be able to take over payments or structure a wraparound mortgage to benefit both parties.Hard Money or Private Lender for Reno Costs – If you secure a seller-financed deal, you can use private or hard money for the rehab without tying up your own capital.BRRRR Strategy with a Bridge Loan – If you can get the purchase price down, use a bridge loan for acquisition and rehab, then refinance with DSCR or conventional financing.Would love to hear more details to help structure something solid.

In certain situations—especially with motivated sellers—this can be a way to structure a deal with little money down and flexible terms.

If structured correctly, this could be a strategic first step toward future multifamily investments.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

In my personal experiences a lot of structural items start with bad drainage.

Did you go the traditional route with conventional financing, leverage seller financing, use creative deal structures like subject-to, or something else entirely?
