I would shoot for longer tenor (e.g. five to seven years instead of three years) and a faster amortization schedule (e.g. base the note on 20 year amortization schedule).

Where it's such a short time frame, I'd say take the money off the table and get going on that 203k rehab, which will probably accelerate your equity much faster than $140/month.$140/month * 12 months / $30,000 equity = 5.6% return on equity per year before depreciation, loan pay down, and an interest deduction.
