Me,I would charge 7% on a no money down loan because you need to make a decent profit and make the note tasty to other note buying cash investors if you wanna sell it before they can refinance and pay you off in 2 years or more.The escrow company will show you how to fill out the paperwork on a private note loan.

Several ideas come to mind.Find an investor or two with "bigger pockets" cash wise than you do right now and cut them in on the deal.You offer to handle everything like rehab costs and the actual work of getting it done(dealing with contractors,real estate agent,etc) and just let them use their cash to pay for the initial purchase.An out of state cash investor like me might want to get in on a nice deal like that.Another idea is to wholesale the house for a smaller but,quicker profit.Get it under contract for a rock bottom tasty price and sell it to a bigger pocket investor before the deal closes.There are plenty of hard money lenders if you want the entire potential profit .Make them compete for your business.
