I'm not saying you're doing this, but people will often make the mistake of looking into the highest priced rental unit and making that the "market rate" but it's often not a true comparable to the subject.

A lot of subjective/anecdotal criteria here.

I may explain that while I’d like to buy/finance/invest in his property, I need to earn a certain return on my invested capital for the given amount of risk, and if not able to earn the return on the subject deal than I will on the next deal.  

@Brad Kanouse,I believe this is a duplicate of this post:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/311/topics/1210256-usin...But regardless, here is my answer:If you take a distribution from an IRA - it will be subject to taxes and penalties.You can convert your IRA into a "Self-directed IRA" and have the IRA buy the property, in this case you are not the owner, the IRA is.

Questions like this are too vague and subjective.

Structuring the Deal with a PartnerWhile your partner cannot directly participate in the loan, there are ways to structure your arrangement to reflect your 50/50 partnership:Option 1: Post-Purchase Equity SaleYou obtain the 203(k) loan in your name as the owner-occupant.After closing, you sell your partner 50% equity in the property via a quitclaim deed or similar legal instrument.Your partnership agreement would outline each person’s roles, responsibilities, and share of profits.Note: Be mindful of FHA’s rules around title changes and ensure this doesn’t violate loan terms.Option 2: Partnership Contribution AgreementYou both contribute to the down payment and renovation costs as outlined in a partnership agreement.Your partner’s contribution could be recognized as a share of the equity in exchange for funding, services, or property management.The partnership agreement would detail how profits, responsibilities, and equity are split.Option 3: Joint Venture AgreementStructure the deal as a joint venture, where you own the property personally (required for the FHA loan), but profits and roles are split per a formal agreement.Your partner could receive equity-like compensation through profit-sharing without being on the title.3.

Please include this subject line " (your name/date/subject)" and I'll respond directly to it.

., as Chris noted, the required documentation will be outlined in the LP Agreement you signed.

You need to log everything to protect yourself from any liability.Going back to your initial question--price is subjective.
