It would make sense the wants to get paid for the rehab cost, but 50/50 from the profit does not seem fair. You could offer a finders fee for finding the property instead + he earns your business as a contractor

For your next property, are you looking for a SFR or MFR?

We have worked selling data to wholesalers, and the rates are very slim. We have provided a 40,000 mailing list from which they spend $20-30k in marketing costs and end up finding 3-4 deals. It's a lot of upfront investment

I am currently training a computer vision model to recognize whether a house has been renovated or not. I am looking for a large pool of photos of houses before and after a renovation. Anyone here has a large database of photos of their projects?

Post: Advice on making tenants paying market rent

Take vacancy into your calculations as well. While market rent is great, these tenants do cycle through your houses causing extra costs in repairs + vacancy time in between tenants. Sometimes is better off to have a reliable tenant for a cheaper price than unpredictable tenant for a couple hundred bucks more
