What is reasonable interest for loan from family memebers
I am in need of 50k to close the deal and I need to use them approximately 3-4 months tops. I am thinking of reaching out to my family member to loan this amount. What would be reasonable interest I could give on top of the principal amount at the end.
I am thinking of returning the whole amount along with interest as soon as I refinance the house.
Thanks BP !

@Jenna Walker I usually offer my private lenders a choice:
- 6% if you want monthly payments
- 8% if you are ok with me paying you all the money at the end
So often times, I have a loan with no payments. Kind of helps a little bit. But offering a choice allows them to feel a little more involved too. Something along those lines would be fine. Thanks!
