Do anyone have a template for private money agreement with friend

I have been buying fix and flips along with brrr deals doe 4 years now. It has fought the attention of a few friends that have asked to put some money in for a return. I will still be using majority of my own money and offering them a 10% return. I have 3 deals lined up but I want to make sure I have the paperwork correct before taking any money. Does anyone have a template of reference I could work from and then take to my attorney if needed to verify everything. I have been reading “Raising private capital” along with anything else I can get my hand on.Any information would be appreciated. Thanks!

The BiggerPockets FilePlace may have a template for you. But you're going to need to go over it with an attorney.

    @Account Closed   It's good that you want to do it the right way.  Sometimes people want to cut corners when the deal is between friends, but really you should protect your friend's money just like you would a stranger's.  

    To try to address your question, it's not just one form/template that you'll need.  And the documents that you'll be using really should be provided by the lender (or their attorney), even though they're usually paid for by the borrower.  A list of the most commonly used documents, along with some good advice, can be found in one of the responses (a few down from the top) in this thread:

    Best of luck to you on your upcoming deals!

    Instead of cheaping out and trying to use some online agreement non-specific to your deal - For god's sake, hire an atty to draft an agreement.

    I don't get people worried about pennies when you're dealing with relatively large amounts of money.
