Project Manager Compensation?

For any of you medium to high volume flippers, I'm curious as to how you compensate your Project Managers. Our team is shooting for 24 Flips this year (and on-schedule so far) and we're struggling with our Project Manager. The original plan was to be 100% commission, based on metrics like net profit after the flip is sold, size ($) of the remodel, finishing on-time and under-budget, etc.

Meeting our average profit per flip and doing 24 / year, our PM has the potential to make around $72,000 / year. This is 1099 and the schedule is SUPER flexible. Pros and Cons of this compensation plan are...

* We could lose money on a project, or make twice our planned profit. 
* The amount of hours spent managing could vary, based on size of remodel and number of contractors involved (10 hours or 80 hours, paid the same).
* The house could sit on-market a while, meaning the PM doesn't take a commission for 6-9 months on that project. 

I'm hoping to get some feedback. What is everyone else doing for Project Management? Compensation, full vs. part time PM's, number of PM's, duties & responsibilities, etc. Thanks in advance!
