Post: How to charge on tools/equipment with different partnerships?

I don't want to be dismissive, but $15-20k in tools is not enough to be dissecting useful life and brainstorming compensation over when 80% is affiliated ownership.  If you're adding people to a business model (person #5) they should be buying in for an equivalent percentage and bringing something to the table... Access to the relatively small asset of another business is a part of the bargain.  Consider it like the existing partners are bringing contractor contacts (their other entity) to the table.  It's no different than me hiring ABC Plumbing to swap a water heater, minus the affiliated business relationship.

That said, the services rendered by entity A for new entity B should be accounted for in the form of inclusive services... services need to be costed, warranted, insured, and held to the same standards you'd expect from a non-affiliated contractor. 

Keep It Simple. Entity A in this case needs to charge a market rate and provide a market service.  Entity B might have shared ownership but it needs to be treated as a stand alone entity.

Bill it out as a service or hire a 3rd party entirely...  don't waste time with the details of tool rentals, etc.

@Jesse Funk yep! The group originated as a handful of us but has grown exponentially. I believe Jedd lives up in MN now, Robert moved out to AZ last I heard. At any rate: the collective group is thriving. Recently started a "small talk" discussion which is a focused content section followed by pure, good ole networking. We meet up at Wobbly Boots (moved from Ingersoll Tap due to size) on the Third Thursday monthly. Check Meetup for additional details on time and content.

Feel free to direct message me with questions bud.

Wobbly Boots in Clive provides an energetic, but quiet-enough-for-a-conversation type of environment. They also serve food and drinks!

We're continuing our guided discussion about flipping properties with a focus on the renovation part. We previously discussed financing and analyzing a flip. Check out the posts by @ColuzziRE on Instagram for some of the highlights.

Stick around for the DSM Real Estate Investing Meetup at the same location from 6-8pm
