Currently I'm thinking about offering both debt and equity styles of investments, so I would like to find out the legal documents and procedures in setting up such structure.

You'll need a good accountant to help you calculate this annually.Non-recourse lenders generally require a higher down payment, have certain property requirements (must be income producing, etc) and the loans are generally structured as 3 - 5 year ARMS.A third scenario would be your IRA co-investing with someone else as tenants-in-common.  

A few large dorm structures being built along with even more new building construction for facilities. 

Anyway, I will have lots of questions later to run by the experience here on BP but for now, I was wondering if anyone can briefly explain how a typical investor relationship would be structured (how do I entice an investor & what do I offer) and what trait do I need to consult to capture that structure; attorney, accountant, etc.?

We like houses with structural issues and old homes with lots of character pique our interest as well.

Additionally, I like using 1% of purchase price as a general rule for buy/holds in the Nashville market.Rent = $1300- PITI $850- PM $130- 5% cap reserve $65- 5% vac reserve $65= $190 cash flowHow I structured the deal:This is the tricky part and being the first subject to deal I’ve ever done, I hired an attorney.

How should I structure this?

Sure, there are unsophisticated investors who will bite at such comp structures, but I can do deals all day long w/o those fees, and have seen a direct correlation between lead greediness and their difficulty in fully subscribing their private placements.

I found a fairly interesting way to structure my first deal and I am wondering what you think of it.I have under contract 60Linden street Pawtucket RI  MLS1123800.It was a forclosure listed at 169,000.
