We had a similar situation recently and ended up doing a hybrid model where the investor gets paid interest on his loan (but at a low rate, in our case 5%) but he also gets 25% of the entity, which means he gets 25% of any cash flow left after we service his loan payments (so his effective return could be between 6 or 7% for example on a property that has a 10% cap rate) and he gets 25% of the equity when we sell (or refi and buy more properties in the same entity), which is interesting for him as well because we typically buy properties significantly below market, and where there is potential for appreciation.
