You should not have the 'friend' record a deed on the property, have a contract between the two of you for business purposes and purchase the property jointly and pay back based on the contract/agreement you have with them.There are other types of loans like Hard Money & Non-QM programs that may have different guidelines that can help you as well, but, the Delayed Financing option will give you the best long term rates for a longer term hold with fast repayment of most of your capital.  

I was wondering if there is any advice other fellow investors or agents have such as personal mistake you have done and how to avoid them etc also just some good tips in general.
