Hi Victor, thanks for the response. Its my second deal. First one is a rehab and rent on a similar property. I have been to a couple of his other properties (flips) and my architect is working with him on a number of other projects. Its early in the deal and I have done some comps for rough arvs. They are slightly optimistic, I think closer to $1 million is being careful.
I still have a lot of due diligence to do. I thought the split was reasonable, I am only really bringing the cash to the table?

Hi Bigger Pockets, Checking my profile and this it my first post! I have spent so much time on BP and listening to the podcasts, its hard to believe.
I am looking at a fix and flip of a multi unit with an experience contractor / investor. I wanted some advice from the community. The offered agreement is a joint venture, 50/50 of profits. We are financing via a hard money lender he uses, 15% down on the property and they will fun the construction. I will be funding the 15%.
Numbers below:
Property $450K
Construction: $200-250K
ARV: $1.1million
I need to work on the numbers and detail, but its a four unit and we should get $300K per unit.
I am fairly new to this, so I see it as a great way to learn, with an experience investor. Hes also bringing the deal to the venture.
Do people think its a fair deal and any advice about setting up new ventures in terms of agreements etc?
Thanks in advance. Robert
