Question about Private Funding

[M Falcon]

Hi all, my first time posting here, but I have actually been reading through the forums for some time now. I have learned a lot just by studying the material here and following pro investor blogs.  But never the less, my experience with real estate investing is zero. I am just starting to muster up the courage to take that leap. I am interested in knowing if anyone has worked with private funding/investors for a percentage of the profits and not pay any interest rate or points.
