Hi All,
A good friend of mine is a handyman in Toronto. Recently a RE agent he worked for in the past, suggested the following deal to him:
- RE agent buys a property by arranging financing and putting the down payment required.
- handyman is on title (for tax purposes)
- Handyman renovates/improves property. say 2 months work.
- Handyman and RE agent share material costs only 50/50
- Renovated property is sold by RE agent
- profit after paying RE agent his initial financial contribution (down payment), is shared 50/50.
- Handyman did no get paid for 2 month work (except material was shared 50/50 as mentioned)
and RE agent did not get paid for arranging everything and no fee when selling.
Is the above a common and fair flipping deal OR should the handyman also get paid for his 2 months work (say $5k-$10k) in addition to sharing profit 50/50?
THANKS.
