🏠💰Project Manager Compensation 🏠💰
Hi all!
Looking for advice on how to compensate my project manager going forward.
BACKGROUND: I'm working on my 1st flip, and the project is about 3 weeks beyond the completion date, and went over budget.
I paid my project manager a flat fee to oversee the rehab.
What should I do going forward?
Find someone else? Give him another shot? Change his pay to a lower flat fee and base the rest of his pay on profit?
If we go with a profit based model should it be based off of gross or net profit?
Any advice would help!!
Thanks!

Danny,
I think the best way to compensate is give someone some incentive. Base compensation on percetage of net profit in my opinion.
Best of luck in all your endeavors
