Development fees for small residential project
Hello everyone
Need advice on what is a reasonable compensation to provide to a developer helping me
Project is 2.5 acres of residential land - was developed for commercial office buildings , recently rezoned to residential with all utilities laid out .
I have the land under contract , working with a developer who develops , residential lots .
He is kind of slowing down and father of one of my colleagues and willing to help and get involved with 30-35 years of experience doing this .
Land with development cost will be be around 800-900k, which I and my partners will contribute and projected expected return is around 50% .
What percentage of profits is reasonable fee for him to be the developer , doing everything from permitting to lots ready to build
