That would simplify things as well.  

A simplified example with easy numbers: You borrow $90k in private money to buy a $100k house and spend $30k in renovations.

Write the strategy(s) out on paper before going to steps 2 & 3 and try to condense and simplify the explanations of the strategy(s) as much as possible, 3-4 steps, focusing on the questions of "How is this creating value/cashflow?"

That could simplify the cash flow operation he asked about.
