Currently for Owner occupied I get 4.5 or below and 5-5.25 for investment properties with loans at 300K or higher, Check out a private local bank or chase who matches rates possibly.

The bank will want 20-25% of the total (purchase + renovation) costs as a down payment.Other options are to use a Hard Money Lender (HML) or private money.Other people just pay for it all in cash...

I have a meeting in the morning with a private business owner to see if he wants to get involved in small micro loans at a good rate of return.  

OR do I just say I am being too greedy and work on my current deals and pass this one up and forget about structuring $5k worth of private money or the hefty price tag of a HML?

I'll message you privately.

I will be BRRRRing this deal and am looking for a bridge loan with a maximum term of 36 months.I have a Private Money Lender ready and willing to front the 25% DP ($80k).

I’d rather give up the first X years of cash flow to a private money lender (I.e. your dad) for the down payment then get into a fight over thanksgiving dinner about how to run my rental business. 

I have several years of experience leasing units for both private owners and property management companies.

When we advertise it, we always make notes about how it's still under construction, but include final beds/baths, etc, photos, and rent amount. 

The photos are of the park it overlooks, the backyard and the house (on pg.4)My Goal: Live rent free and earn some cashflow on the side.
