How much to pay private lenders?

[Christopher W.]

Like the title says, how much do you pay your private lenders? I have seen that 8% - 15% seems like the average.

Now another question - is that 8-15% on the money they lend you or of your final profit?

Chris,

You asked about private money lenders and not hard money lenders. All the answers you received are about hard money loans.
I rarely pay points on private money loans. Most deals get 10% or 12% interest based on the loan amount.

So in your example of a $100k loan, at 12% interest, yes, you would owe $1k a month. Typically, I have the loan contract to pay the principle and interest in one balloon payment, and not monthly interest payments, so at the end of the term, say 6 months on flips, I would pay the private investor $106k

For holds, I would structure the interest payments monthly.
